[CFW]

Attorneys from Scotusblog will be in the press room at the Court and will be liveblogging the decisions as they are released.

I'll be posting those decisions here in this thread as soon as the information becomes available.

This should be a big day IF they release all of the pending cases.

[CottonBall]

thanks!

[CFW]

SCOTUS ping!

[CFW]

Scotusblog is reporting that this is NOT the last day for Opinions as in previous years. I can only recall one time that the court did not finish up by the end of June. Of course, we do not live in “usual or normal” times.

An interesting observation by Amy: Typos -- 6 opinions issued this week, and 4 of them already have corrections! Including "nitrous" oxide (laughing gas) changed to nitrogen oxides... What's going on behind the scenes?

I never knew that they corrected opinions. How common is this?

[Reno89519]

Yes, in 2020 they went over. They started out the blog that this would be the last day, not suggesting it won’t be. Something like what 9 decisions pending?

[Dead Corpse]

There were 10 as of yesterday and they released 4. However, Bannon’s request for emergency stay might constitute another...

[CFW]

“I never knew that they corrected opinions. How common is this?”

It’s actually pretty common in all Courts to have modified opinions to correct typos etc.

[pollywog]

I pray that they will rule, and RIGHTLY on TRUMPS case today. It would be a added victory for him after lasts night debate!

[CFW]

An opinion day has already been added to the calendar for Monday. I bet fight arrangements are having to be rescheduled.

[Reno89519]

And Chevron. That’d be a great two-fer.

[CFW]

Word is there is two boxes. Four or five opinions?

[nonliberal]

Let’s see if Amy Commie Barrett wanders off the reservation again.

[Sacajaweau]

btt

[CFW]

The first opinion is.......

We have the first opinion — Grants Pass v. Johnson. It is by Justice Gorsuch, and the vote is 6-3 with Sotomayor dissenting, joined by Jackson and Kagan.

[CFW]

The Ninth Circuit is reversed and the decision is remanded.

The court holds that the enforcement of generally applicable laws regulating camping on public property does not constitute “cruel and unusual punishment” barred by the Eighth Amendment.

[Reno89519]

Good no camping on our sidewalks.
