Description
Professors Michael Pollack, Kate Shaw, and Ekow Yankah will discuss important upcoming cases involving the Second Amendment, abortion access and affirmative action, among other topics; discuss decision-making dynamics; and consider the future of the Court.
Professor Yankah discussed criminal law and criminal procedure cases:
- Wooden v. U.S. (ACCA case)
- United States v. Taylor
- Thompson v. Clark
- United States v. Tsarnaev
Professor Pollack discussed:
- Students for Fair Admissions Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College
- Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany v. Lacewell (in brief, not on the merits docket yet)
- Ramirez v. Collier (RLUIPA)
- American Hospital Assn. v. Becerra (Chevron doctrine)
Professor Shaw discussed:
- The fact that for the first time, we now have real-time live audio of case arguments on the Supreme Court website (water rights cases can be weirdly interesting)
- Cases challenging SB 8 (Texas law) (5-4 unsigned SCOTUS decision; United States v. Texas; private party suits against Alan Braid – Center for Reproductive Rights filed an interpleader action)
- Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Org. (Mississippi case)
- Cameron v. EMW Women’s Surgical Center (ostensibly procedural Kentucky abortion case that may signal how the later cases will be decided)
- New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn. v. Bruen (2nd Amendment case)
