Good morning and welcome to Supreme Court Brief. The high court is in its winter break, although Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. is still traveling across the street for the Senate impeachment trial. Winter seems to slow everything down a bit and the court is no exception. We take a look at the pace of decisions thus far. And the justices have asked the U.S. solicitor general to weigh in on a thorny issue of immunity for the government contractors who allegedly abused Iraqi prisoners in the infamous Abu Ghraib prison.

Thanks for reading, and feedback is always welcome and appreciated. Contact us at [email protected] and [email protected] and follow us on Twitter at @MarciaCoyle and @Tonymauro.
