Cases and Controversies

Justices Speed Things Up and Close In on Blockbusters


Listen Later

The Supreme Court made up a lot of ground fast on issuing decisions, and appears to be in good position to finish the term on its customary timeline.

The justices handed down 11 opinions in recent days, and have 18 more to go by the end of the month or early July.

More decisions are expected on Tuesday with blockbuster rulings on abortion, guns, and religion outstanding.

On this episode of Cases and Controversies, host Kimberly Robinson highlighted a flurry of decisions on June 13 and 15.

An immigration case, Arizona v. San Francisco, suggests the justices might look for off-ramps to complex issues as the term winds down.

In an administrative law case, American Hospital Association v. Becerra, the justices made changes to the bedrock Chevron doctrine on judicial respect for federal agency rules, without saying the word “Chevron.”

And a pair cases about tribal sovereignty, Denezpi v. US and Ysleta del Sur Pueblo v. Texas, suggest tribes might have a friend in Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
