The week ahead

Both orders and opinions are expected today at 10 a.m. Eastern; we will be live blogging them this morning.  Additional opinions or non-capital orders are unlikely for the rest of the week.

The Justices meet for their private conference on Thursday.

The petitioners’ merits briefs are due today in two cases to be argued next Term, Snyder v. Phelps (09-751) and Bruesewitz v. Wyeth (09-152).
