Wednesday round-up
on Jul 27, 2016 at 12:25 pm
Briefly:
- Writing for this blog, Amy Howe covered yesterday’s filing by attorneys for a transgender student, who urged the Court not to block lower-court rulings that would allow the student, who identifies as a boy, to use the boys’ restroom at a Virginia high school while a dispute over the school board’s bathroom policy is litigated on the merits.
- At Business Insurance, Stephanie Goldberg reports that Florida workers have asked the Court to review a challenge to the constitutionality of the state’s workers compensation system.
- At Constitution Daily, Lyle Denniston analyzes election pledges by Democratic candidates to overturn the Court’s decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, describing them as a “vow that faces considerable odds.”
