Supreme Court justices have had enough<\/h3><p>John Fritze, CNN<\/p><div><p>Oral argument sessions at the Supreme Court are getting longer, and it\u2019s prompting a debate about whether something needs to change. \u201cThe average length of arguments in the current term clocked in at just under 90 minutes, according to a CNN analysis. That\u2019s up nearly 10 minutes from the term that began in 2020, when the court heard arguments remotely because of the pandemic.\u201d Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito recently have shared their interest in finding a way to shorten arguments, while Justice Clarence Thomas has joked that he could sit in the courtroom \u201call day.\u201d Emory University law professor Tonja Jacobi told CNN that part of the value of argument sessions is that they help regular people better understand the court\u2019s work but noted that longer arguments \u201cbecome a little less accessible.\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div><div><h3>Supreme Court\u2019s John Roberts Faces Impeachment Resolution from Democrat<\/h3><p>Jason Lemon, Newsweek<\/p><div><p>On Thursday, Rep. Steve Cohen, a Democrat from Tennessee, introduced a \u201clong-shot effort\u201d to impeach Chief Justice John Roberts \u201ccentered on allegations that the Supreme Court under his leadership has acted in a partisan and inconsistent manner,\u201d according to Newsweek. \u201cIn a statement announcing the resolution, Cohen said that Roberts has led the court to be \u2018understood as biased: with decisions designed to benefit Republicans at the expense of representative government, seemingly contradictory and unexplained orders, and a pattern of ethical breaches that raises questions about the role of the wealthy.\u2019\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div><div><h3>US Companies Shamed by Trump Tiptoe Into Tariff-Refund Race<\/h3><p>Laura Curtis, Rachel Phua, and Ignacio Gonzalez, Bloomberg<span><svg><\/svg><\/span><\/p><div><p>According to a Bloomberg analysis, \u201c[o]nly about 5% of the 3,000 largest publicly traded US companies mentioned refunds in the context of President Donald Trump\u2019s now-illegal tariffs in recent comments and regulatory filings.\u201d Bloomberg noted that such companies are staying quiet about tariff refunds in hopes of reducing \u201cthe risk of political and legal jeopardy\u201d that comes with claiming them. That risk became clear when President Donald Trump \u201cpaint[ed] refund backers as unpatriotic after the Supreme Court struck down\u201d his signature tariffs. \u201cSaying too much about refunds invites not just Trump\u2019s scorn but also legal challenges from consumers clamoring for a piece of the payout.\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div><div><h3>Mahmoud Khalil to Appeal to Supreme Court in Effort to Halt Deportation<\/h3><p>Jonah E.

Initially, that settlement was on track to be finalized this summer, around the time the justices issue their ruling, but now the lawyers behind the Supreme Court case \u201care trying to derail\u201d it by seeking to move the settlement proposal from state to federal court and by contending that it \u201cwon\u2019t adequately compensate people who believe they\u2019ve been sickened by Roundup,\u201d according to USA Today.

As SCOTUSblog readers know, we host a live blog on opinion days. Almost immediately after an opinion is announced, it becomes available on the court\u2019s website, and a member of the SCOTUSblog team will then post a link to it on the live blog. This is labeled a \u201cslip opinion.\u201d However, as we\u2019ve explained, Amy is typically in the court\u2019s press room when opinions come down, and she (along with the other reporters present) receives paper copies of the opinions from the court\u2019s  staff. The paper copy that Amy receives (which is also available to members of the public about 30 minutes after opinion announcements) is labeled a \u201cbench opinion.\u201d<\/p><p>But what in the world is the difference between a \u201cbench\u201d and a \u201cslip\u201d opinion? Why the heck aren\u2019t they just called &#8230; opinions?<\/p><p>Let\u2019s start with bench opinions. This practice emerged when the court moved into its current home in 1935 and adopted a \u201c\u201d approach to issuing decisions. Specifically, several members of the press sat at desks between the justices sitting on the bench and the counsel\u2019s podium. When a justice announced a decision, members of the court\u2019s staff would hand paper copies to these journalists. The journalists would then send the copies of the opinion down a floor to their coworkers in the press room through  (picture the tubes used at a bank drive-up window \u2013 or in the movie Brazil). From there, the reporters would write their stories about the case (or cases) as quickly as possible for publication. Although the pneumatic tubes and reporters\u2019 desks in the courtroom are gone (Chief Justice Warren Burger had them \u2013 and the reporters \u2013 removed in 1971 when he had a curved bench installed), the term bench opinion remains.<\/p><p>So what is a slip opinion? Slip opinions were originally opinions printed on loose \u201cslips\u201d of paper that could be inserted into printed volumes of cases. The slip opinion typically came out later then the bench opinion and might have corrections or edits that did not appear in the bench opinion \u2013 although now that a version of the slip opinion is posted online they are generally identical. That said, the online slip opinion may be updated from time to time for any errors as the publication process is completed, which occurs when these are placed into the volumes of the United States Reports. Slip opinions are also available in the Public Information Office (at least those from the ).<\/p><p>But what, today, is the substantive difference between a bench and slip opinion? The answer is not much. While historically there was some delay between the bench opinion being distributed and the release of slip opinions a few days later, technology has shortened that delay to become almost nonexistent. So then why keep that particular distinction at all? Because, above all else, as the court\u2019s website states, the Supreme Court \u201cis deeply tied to its traditions.\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div><div><h2>SCOTUS Quote<\/h2><div><div><p>JUSTICE KENNEDY: \u201cAnd that if there was fraud on the market, that is a materiality question addressed at the certification stage, but if the class isn&#8217;t certified, the investor can still show that he had had direct reliance that was reasonable?\u201d<\/p><p>MR.
