Supreme Court to Crank Out Opinions as Term End Nears
Listen now
Description
The US Supreme Court still has a lot left to do before it can close the term. Out of the 61 cases argued between October and April, the justices still have 29 to decide and they include some potential blockbusters. The court is expected to rule by the end of June on two abortion-related disputes and Donald Trump’s appeal for absolute immunity from prosecution over election interference allegations. “Cases and Controversies” hosts run through what’s ahead in the court’s final weeks, discuss Justice Samuel Alito's flag flap, and recap big decisions released so far, including one that saved the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Hosts: Kimberly Robinson and Lydia Wheeler Producer: Matthew S. Schwartz
