When people are not aware of a conflict, they can't request a judge to recuse themselves. This conflict of interest became widely known in the last 24 hours. SCOTUS should be beyond the look of impropriety, they are not crossing guards. They are 1 of the 3 branches of govt

Were the extent of these conflicts known by all such potential litigants? I have never seen the extent of the relationship disclosed previously

Admittedly I'm not a law guy here, so I won't assume expertise, but SCOTUS has become far more politicized than a normal court where a relative-as-defendant-or-plaintiff may apply. Would even the whiff of conflict warrant investigation in this case?

It’s always been the case that SCOTUS justices had a different standard for conflicts than others; all of them have or have had something similar.

The optics doesn’t look good though.Dutch Banks reputation isn’t the best. I think someone with the ability should check & see if any shenanigans was going on.
