Order Day

The Supreme Court didn't drop any additional news on Friday, either order or opinion day related. There was some news over the weekend, some climate activist killing himself as a somewhat opaque act of protest in front of the Supreme Court building. Happy Earth Day.

Today's Order List was not too notable, except that two cases were granted. One case involves rules for jurisdiction that might be an important corporate litigation issue. The other will set rules for when you can bring a DNA testing claim.

The Supreme Court has a few notable oral arguments this week, the last of the term (and for Breyer), including today. They also dropped another order, the High Federalists dissenting without comment. As one tweet summary notes: "SCOTUS won't require Virginia public high school to revise admissions criteria for upcoming year after a lower court said new policy discriminated against Asian American applicants."
