It is a Per Curiam, with concurrences and a dissent from Alito, in which Justice Thomas and Gorsuch joined. Justice Jackson concurred in part and dissented in part. The case is called Moyle v. United States, which deals with the Idaho abortion law.

Given the Chief Justice has not announced tomorrow will be the final day (Court has adjourned now) that all but ensures we will be coming back next week. More opinions coming tomorrow, and we could find out when the next opinion day is.

Good Friday morning everyone!


It’s round three of opinions this week, the justices will convene at 10 AM ET to deliver one or more opinions in argued cases this term. There are between 6–8 cases pending, and we also have another opinion day on Monday, which means the Court could finish by then. Of course, we will know when the last opinion day is as soon as the Chief Justice announces it, which we will be looking for today.

As always, as soon as the opinions are released on the website, we will provide them to you here.

JUST IN: Chief Justice Roberts has just announced Monday will be the FINAL day of opinions, which means we will know the outcome of the remaining major decisions on Monday.

Good Monday morning everyone!

It’s the final day of opinions, which means unlike the other opinion days, we know what cases will be released this morning. Although the order of the releases is not predetermined and merely a guess, we will find out between 10amET-11amET (depending on how long it takes to read the opinions and possible dissents from the bench) on how the Court rules on Presidential Immunity. On Friday, the court issued a decision on Fischer v. United States, which did a major blow to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team regarding hundreds of January 6 prosecutions.


Stay tuned at 10amET and remember, as soon as the opinion is available on the website, it’ll be sent here immediately.

(HOLDING: Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power ennoscripts a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is ennoscriptd to at least presump-
tive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no
immunity for unofficial acts.)
