Rigsby and called for the views of the Solicitor General in Endrew F. v. Douglas County School District. The Court also released its opinion in United States Army Corps of Engineers v. Hawkes Co., Inc. On Thursday, the Justices met for their June 2 Conference; our list of “petitions to watch” for that Conference is available here.
