Good morning and welcome to Supreme Court Brief! The justices’ emergency or “shadow” docket keeps them busy during the two-week break between arguments. But the argument docket heats up again after Thanksgiving with challenges involving the Biden administration’s immigration enforcement priorities, LGBTQ rights and the First Amendment, and the potential election law blockbuster out of North Carolina. We take a quick look at the law firms that have weighed in on some of the many amicus briefs in the election clause case. Justice Clarence Thomas had some sharp criticism of the Sixth Circuit’s handling of federal habeas cases. We have details. Plus, scroll down for some thoughts on how the Supreme Court affected the midterm elections.
Thanks for reading. We welcome feedback and tips. Contact Marcia Coyle at [email protected] and follow her on Twitter @MarciaCoyle.
