Dignified and intimate is the courtroom of the U.S. Supreme Court. Without bluster or unnecessary formality, 200 litigants and members of the public are seated in the red-draped room. The first rows are reserved for the litigants, and the next five rows are reserved for those admitted to practice before the bar of the court. The next 10 rows are for members of the public. Members of the press and personal invitees of the court sit in reserved seats on the sides.
This was the setting on an unseasonably warm day in January for the argument of the first franchise law case ever considered by the court.
