Good morning and welcome to Supreme Court Brief! With the year rapidly drawing to a close, we focus on 2023 and what to expect in terms of arguments, decisions and other court-related issues.

This is the final Supreme Court Brief of 2022 and the final one by this reporter. I am retiring from The National Law Journal but not from covering the Supreme Court.
