In a week that saw some of the most significant arguments of the term (including Trump v. United States, on the former president’s potential immunity from criminal prosecution), we’re back to summarize three outstanding decisions from last week:

…
Read More Rudisill v. McDonough (No. 22-888), Muldrow v. City of St. Louis (No. 22-193), McIntosh v. United States (No. 22-7386)

The Court’s been fairly busy over the last week-plus, issuing seven opinions and a number of notable orders. Unfortunately, we’ve also been fairly busy, and now must dig out of a seven-opinion hole.

About Our Supreme Court Update Blog

Summarizing Supreme Court Decisions Since OT02

Over 20 years ago, Wiggin and Dana’s Appellate practice started the Supreme Court Update as an email listserv summarizing every one of the Supreme Court’s decisions for clients and friends of the firm. Authored by various Wiggin attorneys over the years, the Supreme Court Update has long been a resource for those interested in learning about the full scope of the Court’s activities and not just the high-profile decisions covered by major media. Today, we’ve replaced our email listserv with the Supreme Court Update Blog, which is more user-friendly and makes it easier for readers to find prior Supreme Court Updates of interest. But while the format has changed, our commitment to covering the latest developments at the Court in a timely manner remains. This newer format will allow us to expand our coverage beyond the Supreme Court, writing about prominent cases and notable issues in the state supreme courts and intermediate federal appellate courts.
