Update on March 12: The U.S. Supreme Court issued the following statement: “Out of concern for the health and safety of the public and Supreme Court employees, the Supreme Court Building will be closed to the public from 4:30 p.m. on March 12, 2020, until further notice. The Building will remain open for official business, and case filing deadlines are not extended under Rule 30.1.”

Brian Goldman, a partner in the San Francisco office of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, said he can’t imagine going into his first U.S. Supreme Court argument without moot court preparation by Supreme Court clinics at Georgetown and Stanford law schools.
