Nvidia Highlights Justices' Struggle in Drawing Lines
Listen now
Description
The US Supreme Court struggled with where to draw the appropriate lines in bread-and-butter cases involving Nvidia Corp., criminal law, and immigration deadlines. In the securities case, the court looked for what Chief Justice John Roberts called a "sweet spot" in the Nvidia investor suit alleging the chipmaker at the heart of the AI boom misled the public about its dependence on crypto-mining revenue. In the criminal case, the justices described the argument that an attempted murder-for-hire scheme isn't a crime of violence as "absurd." But they found similar irrationality in the government's argument on the other side. And finally, the justices similarly struggled over whether to give immigrants who voluntarily agree to leave the country more flexibility to appeal their deportation. Cases and Controversies hosts Kimberly Robinson and Greg Stohr breakdown the justices' concerns in the latest episode. Hosts: Kimberly Robinson and Lydia Wheeler. Producer: Mo Barrow.
