As Inauguration Day approaches, anxiety and uncertainty, even dread, mixes with the optimism of some in the American polity. Many express a mix of apathy, weariness, or hopelessness, with a sentiment akin to “wake me in four years.” What would they find when awakened? We begin to take a look ahead, in part by looking behind and evaluating how our own earlier prognostications have turned out. We start with abortion and the Dobbs case, as it loomed large in recent years and clearly continues to reverberate and feeds resentment on one side, activism on the other. What lies ahead for the law, the Court, and the people? CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges at podcast.njsba.com.
