SCOTUS Opinions [Friday, June 21, 2024]
ScotusBlog ^ | 6/21/24 | Amy Howe

Posted on 06/21/2024 6:30:15 AM PDT by CFW

The Supreme Court will release Opinions this morning at 10:00 a.m. Attorneys at scotusblog will be in the press room and live-blogging the Opinions as they are received.

There were four opinions released yesterday which leaves 19 cases remaining for this term. Yesterday's thread on those opinions is here:

June 20 Opinions

For those keeping score, thus far Roberts has written 2 opinions; Thomas 7, Alito, 4, Kagan 5, Gorsuch 2, Kavanaugh 5, Sotomayor, 7, Barrett 3, and Jackson 4. (three cases were per curiam)

Cases of interest and great importance that remain undecided are the Trump immunity case (Trump v. U.S.), the Fischer case (relating to Jan 6 and Trump), and the two cases relating to the Chevron deference issues, Loper Bright and Relentless.

There is also a 2nd Amendment case, Rahimi, regarding possession of a firearm by persons subject to domestic-violence restraining orders.

And of course, there are the First Amendment case. First is NetChoice, LLC v. Paxton, then Moody v. NetChoice, LLC, and finally Missouri v. Murthy Issues: Whether respondents have Article III standing; (2) whether the government’s challenged conduct transformed private social media companies’ content-moderation decisions into state action and violated respondents’ First Amendment rights; and (3) whether the terms and breadth of the preliminary injunction are proper.

A list of the cases for this term can be found at October 23 term

Happy SCOTUS Opinion day. Say a prayer for the Justices.

We still await a decision on censorship.

I seriously doubt they are going to get a trial done before the election. Trump’s attorneys would be filing appeals on court orders which would cause delays even if the higher court almost immediately ruled against them.

No, it is not a huge win. Think about it, commonsense says that a person who poses an immediate risk may be disarmed. That requires laws and a court. That implies and requires due process. The questions come in the application of commonsense--what establishes the threat is one issue, what court ruling a second, and lastly, the due process, e.g., when it ends, how to revisit.

And understand I own firearms, I am a firearms instructor, I shoot competitively, etc., so I'm speaking of direct personal interest. I believe in the second amendment. As well, I know there are some people that should not be allowed to buy, own, or possess firearms.

Good sign if immunity is saved for last. Suggests a political earthquake. Which is what I’m expecting, after the circus in Manhattan made an absurd mockery of the justice system. After that fiasco, Roberts — a consummate institutionalist, if anything — likely moved decisively in Alito’s direction, favoring broad immunity. That’s my read of the tea leaves, FWIW.

Isn’t Fischer v US the J6 case? Trying to remember myself if there’s another politically charged case besides immunity and Fischer.


There is the First Amendment cases, specifically Missouri v. Murthy, on whether the government case “encourage” social media to ban comments and information not to their liking. And there is the Chevron deference cases. I mention those in the original post.

IMHO Barrett seems to have moved left since being appointed as if she wants to prove to the left that she is not really a conservative.

Everyone saw that coming. Seems like she's another Sandra Day O'Connor.

For those keeping up with the number of opinions issued by each Justice this term, Roberts has issued 3, Alito 4, Thomas 6, Gorsuch 3, Kavanugh 4, Kagan 5, Sotomayor 7, and Jackson 5. There have been 3 per curiam opinions.

Why do I get the feeling we are going to hear quite a bit from Gorsuch next week. And also more from Roberts. What I’d LIKE to hear is a lot more from Alito.

Gorsuch can be good if he’s not wacky every now and then. Every once a while he comes up with a ruling that does not make sense.

American woman...stay away from me. :)
I think the song goes like that.


Interesting as I am doing a CR-1 visa for my Thai wife right now. I’m sure she will be approved.
Took me nearly two years to legally bring my wife over from Ukraine. This was nearly 20 years ago.

I could’ve probably shaved a few months off the timeline if I knew what I was doing but I was a lowly E-4 in the military and didn’t have the financial resources for an immigration attorney. I did it all myself off of Google.

I think you mean me... no I live in Metro Detroit. She lives in Bangkok. I will be bringing her here in August to live until I retire, then we will both move back there.

I’ll do a thread next Wednesday and we can do this again. Isn’t it fun!?

I’ve pinged those that have shown an interest in SCOTUS threads. If you want on or off the ping list, let me know.

With no direct experience or knowledge, I’ve often wondered just how tough it is to get a restraining order against someone.

I wonder if they will carry over into July? The closer to the convention, the more the immunity ruling will impact politics.

Ooh. Does this mean that IOmar will not be able to get a visa for marrying her brother?
