It’s SCOTUS Day!

Cases coming up at 10 AM.  Probably not the gay marriage one or the Obamacare one, but there’s some meaty cases likely to hit today.  Redistricting, EPA rules, housing, and lethal injection cases are left (SCOTUSBlog is, as always, tracking this stuff obsessively*), so one or more should show up today, more tomorrow, and the big guns next week.  Unless the Supreme Court decides to do how it pleases, which is what it typically pleases to do.  Either way, expect excitement this morning!

…God, I am such a nerd.  AND PROUD OF IT.

*Although a lot of people will be tuning in later to see SCOTUSBlog’s possibly most popular feature: to wit, their responses to people who think that @SCOTUSBlog is the official Twitter account of the US Supreme Court.  Worth following for that, alone. Particularly if you think that people shouldn’t social media without at least taking a vision test.

It’s SCOTUSday again.

Probably only one actual decision and it’s probably not one of the ones we’d be tracking, but: Supreme Court decisions today. Something to look forward to this morning! …Or dread. Dread is always an option.

It’s SCOTUS Day!

Yup, it’s Supreme Court season again.

Nothing too dramatic today, I believe, but you never know.  Also: as usual, I am bemused that I am now in a headspace where the Supreme Court decision calendar is a source of excitement.  Or at least content…

Supreme Court Watch: Second day of three.

Cases announced today at 10 AM EDT. Assuming that Obamacare doesn’t get tossed/upheld/gutted/declared a tax, and assuming that the Court doesn’t decide the Arizona immigration case today, the most interesting one remaining is probably this one:

Knox v. Service Employees International Union

Argued on January 10, 2012

Plain English Issue: Whether a state can require its employees to pay a special union fee that will be spent for political purposes without first giving the employees information about the fee and a chance to object to it.

That Plain English thing that SCOTUSblog does is pretty useful, no? – Certainly AoSHQ thinks so, and I agree.
