#SCOTUS grants cert in one new case, State Farm Fire & Casualty Co. v. US, ex rel. Rigsby.
This is the first new cert grant from #SCOTUS since May 2.
Cert denied in UNITE Here Local 54 v. Trump Entertainment Resorts. #SCOTUS
Lamondre Tucker's cert petition challenging constitutionality of the death penalty is denied. Justice Breyer, joined by Ginsburg, dissents.
#SCOTUS tosses out Shawn Patrick Lynch's death sentence, reversing the Arizona Supreme Court.
Justice Thomas, joined by Alito, dissents from that per curiam decision.
Corey Wimbley's case out of Alabama is granted, vacated, and remanded in light of Hurst. #SCOTUS
#SCOTUS took no action in either Duane Buck or Bobby James Moore's cases. Both are out of Texas.
Both have been distributed for 5 conferences now, though Buck's been pulled multiple times.
And, for decisions, it's a one-box day. Coming in 5. #SCOTUS
One decision today: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers v. Hawkes. Opinion by the Chief Justice, affirming the 8th Circuit. #SCOTUS
There are no dissents, although Kennedy (joined by Thomas and Alito) and Kagan concur. Ginsburg concurs in part and in judgment.
Kennedy's concurring opinion begins, "My join extends to the Court's opinion in full." #SCOTUS
(Yes, by the way, the Chief punked the #SCOTUS press corps today. When the only decision was from him, many of us thought it was Fisher.)
And, that's it from #SCOTUS until Monday, June 6, when more orders and opinion(s) will be expected.
