Welcome to Supreme Court Brief. The justices are less than two weeks away from their first-ever telephonic oral arguments. Advocates during those May arguments undoubtedly are anxiously awaiting more guidance on the format. As we wait, we take a look at an all-star lineup of First Amendment scholars in a petition stemming from a Black Lives Matter protest. Plus, a rare confession from DOJ, and a FOIA suit over records stemming from Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s White House tenure is settled with a fee award against the government.
