Good morning and welcome to Supreme Court Brief. With the Trump impeachment trial expected to end today, Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. will be able more fully to join his colleagues during this break in arguments. Meanwhile, we take a look at a petition in which a Columbia law professor contends there is a “systemic breakdown” in appellate courts’ handling of prisoners’ “certificates of appeal.” Which judges have the most former students on law faculties? We have the answer. Plus: Former deputy solicitor general Michael Dreeben shares his thoughts on making the leap to private practice.

Thanks for reading Supreme Court Brief. Contact Marcia Coyle at [email protected] and on Twitter @MarciaCoyle.
