Breaking News

Friday round-up

Briefly:

  • In another post for Bloomberg Business, Greg Stohr reports that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg “isn’t giving up” on her fight for women’s rights.
  • At Slate, Cristian Farias uses the Chief Justice’s recent comments about being stopped by the police (or not) as a jumping-off point to discuss the Court’s recent Fourth Amendment jurisprudence.
  • At Inside Counsel, Nancy Ross and Brian Netter preview the ERISA case Tibble v. Edison International, including a factual dispute between the parties; they contend that “if the Court decides . . . to engage” that dispute, “it may signal that the Justices have a broader vision for ERISA and that they want more of a direct say as to the building blocks of fiduciary law.”
  • At Talking Points Memo, Sahil Kapur reports on the prospect that one or more of the plaintiffs in King v. Burwell, the challenge to the availability of tax subsidies for individuals who purchase health insurance on an exchange created by the federal government, might lack a legal right to bring his case.
  • In an op-ed for the Charlotte Observer, LeRoy Goldman suggests a Court-based solution to gridlock in the capital.
