The Supreme Court will be releasing Opinions from the October 2025 this morning at 10:00.
Scotusblog will be liveblogging the release and we will be following along.
There are 8 decisions pending for this term and we expect all opinions will be released before July 1st. You can find a list of the cases at October 2025 cases. Note: The word "held" after the case name indicates the Opinion has already been released. The word "Issues" indicates the questions to be resolved by the Court.
You can find the Opinions on this term's previously decided cases at October 2025 Opinions. Today's opinions will be uploaded just after the case is announced from the bench.
Chief Roberts has written 3 opinions, Thomas 6, Alito 6, Sotomayor 6, Kagan 5, Gorsuch 7, Kavanaugh 4, Barrett 6, and Jackson 6. There have been 10 per curiam.
Below are the 8 cases remaining:
Little v Hecox
Whether laws that seek to protect women's and girls' sports by limiting participation to women and girls based on sex violate the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment.
West Virginia v B.P.J.
Issue Area
(1) Whether Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 prevents a state from consistently designating girls' and boys' sports teams based on biological sex determined at birth; and (2) whether the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment prevents a state from offering separate boys' and girls' sports teams based on biological sex determined at birth.
Watson v RNC
Whether the federal election-day statutes, 2 U.S.C. § 7, 2 U.S.C. § 1, and 3 U.S.C. § 1, preempt a state law that allows ballots that are cast by federal election day to be received by election officials after that day.

Trump v Cook
Issue Area
Whether the Supreme Court should stay a district court ruling preventing the president from firing a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.

SCOTUS ping!
should get some big ones out today (I hope) and hopefully more, in our favor...
The Court issued Orders this morning on cases they will accept for the next term.
They denied Trump v. Carroll (I can’t believe that one!).
Here is the list of Orders from today.
https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/062926zor_1bn2.pdf
The court granted Republican National Committee v. Mi Familia Vota, a case out of Arizona involving Arizona’s proof of citizenship requirement.
The court denied review in Dershowitz v. CNN, Alan Dershowitz’s defamation case against the network. Justice Thomas, joined by Justice Gorsuch, dissented.
Dershowitz had asked the court (as others have recently) to overturn its landmark decision in New York Times v. Sullivan, involving the “actual malice” standard for defamation. Thomas would have granted review.
I am watching.
Birth Right Citizenship - I believe that the USSC will send the case back to lower courts and make congress write a law to fix the loophole.
Two boxes of opinions today. So we can expect four or five opinions I would think.
How are you watching?
hoping against hope on Cook - we need more fresh blood at Fed to get reform.
Ummm...no.
It is very unlikely that all SCOTUS opinions for the October 2025–2026 term will be delivered before July 1, 2026
The first case is Watson v. RNC.
By Justice Barrett
The court holds that federal election-day statutes do NOT preempt a Mississippi law that allows mail-in ballots to be counted as long as they are postmarked by, and received within, five days of Election day.
It appears to be a 5-4 vote.
Alito dissents, joined by Thomas and Gorsuch and in part by Kavanaugh
https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25pdf/24-1260_g3cn.pdf
Justice Barrett writes that the “election-day statutes do not set a deadline for ballot receipt, so they do not prevent Mississippi from counting ballots postmarked after election day yet received afterward.”
Thank you for this thread.
‘Hope springs eternal though disappointments may emerge. If so we must keep the fight alive.
Looks like Bad Amy is back...
Stupid bitch Garett!
its a 14th amendment constitutional issue.
* oops * that should have been “Postmarked BEFORE” election day yet received afterwards.
