We're expecting one or more #SCOTUS opinions starting at 10a. After yesterday, 20 cases remain, including a lot of the big ones (see image). Follow along here for live-tweeting, and subscribe to Law Dork now to get any of my reporting that follows: lawdork.com Among the <strike>23</strik...
Just one or two opinions coming this morning.
I covered some recurring end-of-term questions — including what the boxes mean — at Law Dork in May here: lawdork.com/p/recurring-en…
The first — and not last — #SCOTUS opinion today is in Lora v. US. Jackson has the opinion for the unanimous court, vacating the 2nd Circuit in a win for the criminal defendant. A §924(j) sentence
can run concurrently. supremecourt.gov/opinions/22pdf… JUSTICE JACKSON delivered t...
The final #SCOTUS decision today is in United States ex rel. Polansky v. Executive Health Resources. Kagan has the court's opinion (although it's not uploaded yet properly, so more to come).
tl;dr: That's it from #SCOTUS today.

No big decisions today.

For now, we're done, and 18 cases remain, including affirmative action, "independent state legislature," 303 Creative (the "wedding websites" case), student loans, and the the Title VII religious accommodations case. Among the 18 cases remainin...
Here's the opinion in Polansky, a False Claims Act case: supremecourt.gov/opinions/22pdf…
No additional #SCOTUS opinions expected before next Thursday, June 22.
Excellent question! No, I cannot *imagine* that being it. (Also, that might literally kill some of us trying to cover them.) It's almost certain at this point that we'll get more days added to the calendar. For example, today wasn't added until last week.

NEW: Another drag ban ruling!

A senior judge appointed by Obama rules on a Utah city's actions denying a permit for a drag show: "[J]ust as we enjoy and prize our rights, we must value and respect the rights of others. This case presents an opportunity for our recommitment."
Here's the preliminary injunction —> THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORD...The City is ENJOINED from e...
You don't even need to get to the recitation of facts to see how this is going to go.

The judge's CONTENTS page makes it pretty clear. FACTUAL BACKGROUND 1. The C...

BREAKING: Federal judge blocks enforcement of Indiana’s ban on gender-affirming medical care, aside from the provision addressing gender confirmation surgery. The injunction includes the new law’s ban on “aiding and abetting.” More to come at Law Dork: lawdork.com Defendants, their officers,...
Note: Like most of the bans, Indiana’s ban only addresses treatment for minors.

OK. Here we go. The Trump federal indictment: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… Image
Boxes containing classified documents were kept in "a bathroom and shower," per the indictment. Image
The indictment alleges two times when Trump shared classified documents, one being the ghost writers discussion that we have heard audio of and the other being "a representative of his [PAC]." Image

BREAKING: Parties AGREE to a partial stay pending appeal in the ACA preventative care case, subject to court approval, meaning O’Connor’s ruling ending coverage requirements nationwide will almost certainly not go into effect during appeal. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… Image
This surprising development, which is a significant back-down from Jonathan Mitchell, followed unusually tough arguments for him at the Fifth Circuit, which I covered at Law Dork: lawdork.com/p/fifth-circui…
From Law Dork, Mitchell knew it wasn’t going well at argument: lawdork.com/p/fifth-circui… Ultimately, Mitchell return...

OK, all! I am so appreciative of the support that you have shown me in launching Law Dork. Now, in the last 15 days of my first year, I need your help.
lawdork.com
My original goal when launching was 10,000 total subscribers in the first year, and 1,000 paid subscribers. The total subscribers is well above the goal — headed toward 15,000! lawdork.com Law Dork chart showing 14,3...
But, as you can see, I still need 100 more paid subscribers before June 21 to meet that goal. If you've been reading my work and are able to afford it, please consider a paid subscription today. It's just $6/mo or $60/year. Thank you! lawdork.com/subscribe Law Dork chart showing 900 ...
