The U.S. Supreme Court, in its just-completed term, issued a total of 75 signed opinions in argued cases. Five of those cases reached the Supreme Court directly from the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. In seven other argued cases that the Supreme Court decided in its recently completed term, the high court noted that it was resolving conflicts that involved the 3rd Circuit.
Given the abundance of material to discuss in this year’s 3rd Circuit Report Card, my description of how the 3rd Circuit fared in the 2010-11 term will be divided into two parts. Today’s column will review the outcomes of the cases that reached the U.S. Supreme Court directly from the 3rd Circuit. My August column will discuss how the 3rd Circuit performed in the seven other argued cases that involved circuit splits expressly involving the 3rd Circuit.
