SCOTUS Drags Things Out Some More
This is a bit silly. Only three rulings today: an arbitration case (see Kagan's "in a nutshell" dissent), a criminal/statutory matter (8-1, Kagan wrote the majority) and a 6-2 (Roberts majority, nice Barnette reference, Scalia/Thomas dissent) that is a 1A win regarding limits on aid funding. Not to diminish their importance, but why such back-ending?
