Good morning and welcome to Supreme Court Brief. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson heard her first high court argument on Monday and jumped into the questioning like a veteran justice. The court added nine new cases to its docket. We have details on a grant of review in a law firm’s fight over when the attorney-client privilege protects communications involving legal and business advice. The justices also have asked for the views of the solicitor general in four cases—two patent issues, injuries caused by interstate gas emissions and a law firm’s bankruptcy question. Scroll down to read how Justice Elena Kagan is using her dissents to “replenish” the court’s legitimacy.
Thanks for reading. We welcome feedback and tips. Contact Marcia Coyle at [email protected] and follow her on Twitter @MarciaCoyle.
