          In Alito's dissent, he argues the case is barred by res judicata. Even if it was not barred, he argues the majority decision is not right.

          Even if the law imposes an undue burden, he writes — on behalf of himself, the Chief, & Thomas — an as-applied challenge could be brought.

          #SCOTUS remands. If lower court continues to believe there is sufficient evidence under the new standard, McDonnell CAN be retried.
