SCOTUS Watch: Final 2020 Odds and Ends

The end of the year report of the Chief Justice was dropped and logically (with photos comparing a hundred years ago and now) focuses on the Big V. Don't see a reference to RBG dying. We also have more argument dates for 2021. And, a new court reporter.

We also have a few orders, including sending back (with the same 6-3 votes) related cases to the census lawsuit. As of now, Trump has not provided the info in time. And, without comment, a state stay request was denied. Turns out to be an interesting case involving requiring a sex offender to have state id labeling themselves as one.

Also: Jane Against the World: Roe V. Wade and the Fight for Reproductive Rights is a good young adult book that many adults will benefit from as well. The title might confuse since "Jane" here is specifically a collective of women that performed abortions, not Jane Roe. The book is clearly pro-choice, but does provide some material on the other side.
