Monday round-up

Briefly:

  • At The Economist’s Espresso blog, Steven Mazie reports that “[t]his week the Supreme Court decides [in June Medical Services v. Gee] whether a Louisiana abortion law will go into effect,” and that “[h]ow the justices handle this case will give a clue as to whether Roe v Wade, the ruling in 1973 that recognised abortion rights, has continued vitality.”
  • At the Pacific Legal Foundation blog, Anthony Francois weighs in on Kisor v. Wilkie, in which the justices will reconsider precedent that requires courts to defer to a federal agency’s reasonable interpretation of its own ambiguous regulations, arguing that “under Auer deference [our] tripartite and limited constitutional republic collapses into a company town, with no accountable lawmaker and no independent judges.”

We rely on our readers to send us links for our round-up. If you have or know of a recent (published in the last two or three days) article, post, podcast, or op-ed relating to the Supreme Court that you’d like us to consider for inclusion in the round-up, please send it to roundup [at] scotusblog.com. Thank you!
