      #SCOTUS, again, takes no action on Azar v. Garza, the case about an undocumented teen who was seeking an abortion. DOJ has asked SCOTUS to hear the case to reverse the lower court decision (which it lost).

      #SCOTUS sends more than two dozen cases back to the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th, & 11th circuits in light of the recent decision in Sessions v. Dimaya — finding an immigration removal provision to be unconstitutionally vague.

          #SCOTUS paves the way for sports betting in Murphy v. NCAA, striking down a federal law that has banned states from allowing it.

          Here is the decision in Murphy v. NCAA. Opinion by Alito, and only Ginsburg and Sotomayor fully dissent. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/17pdf/16-476_dbfi.pdf … #SCOTUS

          Justice Ginsburg has the decision in McCoy v. Louisiana, holding that the 6th Amendment allows a defendant to insist that his lawyer not admit guilt, even when the lawyer thinks that's the best way to avoid the death penalty.

          The decision is 6-3. Alito is joined by Thomas and Gorsuch in dissent. The Chief Justice and Kennedy joined the more liberal justices. Decision: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/17pdf/16-8255_i4ek.pdf … #SCOTUS

          The next opinion is Byrd v. US. Opinion is by Kennedy, for a unanimous court, vacating and remanding the 3rd Cir. Thomas (joined by Gorsuch) and Alito write concurring opinions.

          In Byrd, #SCOTUS rules that you don't need to have your name on a rental agreement to have a reasonable expectation of privacy if you're legally driving the car.

          The final decision is US v. Sanchez-Gomez. The decision is by Chief Justice Roberts, holding that the case — about shackling of defendants — is moot. #SCOTUS

          That's it. Today's 6 decisions mean that 33 argued cases remain — including 4 heard in 2017 (Epic, Gill, Carpenter, & Masterpiece). The next possible day for #SOTUS decisions is next Monday, May 21.

          How does that work? Were they companion cases that were also granted cert and now they get remand orders?

          They're known as GVRs — grant, vacate, remand — and we tend to have a number of them after any big criminal procedure ruling.
