The Supreme Court is expected to hand down opinions this morning, before it hears arguments in the class action case Home Depot USA v. Jackson, and the Medicare-related Azar v. Allina Health Services. But all of that may be overshadowed by the start of the nomination hearing for William Barr as U.S. attorney general. We took a look at Barr’s argument before the high court during the last time he was attorney general, in 1992. Plus, a disgruntled dissent from from Justices Samuel Alito Jr., Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch gave a nod to a little-noticed Scalia dissent from 2009. Thanks for reading, and contact us at [email protected] and [email protected].

U.S. attorneys general are usually offered the chance to argue before the U.S. Supreme Court at least once (usually a case that is a sure winner) during their tenure.
