O Supreme Court Updates, Supreme Court Updates - QuizLaw, wherefore art thou Supreme Court Updates?
The Supremes issued three opinions today and we’re a bit backed up here at QuizLaw, so we haven’t gotten around to our usual same-day updates (it’s happened before, and it’ll surely happen again – such is life). But we’ll get to them, and they should all be up sometime tomorrow - promise.
In the meantime, if you’re just dying to know the what-what, all three cases involved the Supremes overturning death row convictions in Texas. The opinions were each 5-4, and since the majority ruled in favor of overturning the convictions, it’ll come as no surprise that the dissenters to each of the opinions where Chief Justice Johnny, the Scalia, and Justices Alito and Thomas.
If this isn’t enough to hold you over, and you simply must know more right now, SCOTUSblog has a quick little write-up on the cases.
(And that image from the Boboli Gardens in Florence has nothing to do with this post - I just think it’s a cool image and thought I’d share it with y’all, as a way of apologizing.)
