| Court could dynamite Vermont data mining law | Top |
| A Vermont law that requires doctors' consent before information about the medicines they prescribe can be sold by pharmacies or used for marketing drugs encountered heavy skepticism in the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday. | |
| In sovereign immunity case, states win again | Top |
| The Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled that states may not be sued for money damages under a federal law protecting the religious freedom of prisoners. | |
| Circuit Split Watch: Unambiguous and Plain? | Top |
| "Unambiguous" and "plain." That is how the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the 4th and 9th Circuits, respectively, described 18 U.S.C. § 3624(e), a tolling provision for supervised release. Then, they reached different conclusions about it. The number of circuits taking a side in this split is growing, with four decisions in the past three years alone. The Supreme Court has not yet stepped in, but circuit split watchers should stay tuned. | |
| As Court wraps arguments, decisions pile up and David Boies returns | Top |
| The high court is moving into its final few weeks of arguments for the 2010-11 term. So far, the court has issued less than half the decisions it is expected to hand down. Meanwhile, the argument calendar will bring a high-profile player back to the Marble Palace: David Boies will argue for the first time since Bush v. Gore in 2000. | |
| A decade of work on climate change litigation for land trusts' lawyer | Top |
| His voice won't be heard during arguments in the Supreme Court's major global warming challenge this month, but Matthew Pawa has been a leading voice in crafting the public nuisance approach to climate change litigation for nearly a decade. | |
