Welcome to Supreme Court Brief. Opinions could be on tap this morning and tomorrow, too. Kirkland & Ellis has bragging rights for two reasons today: Veteran Paul Clement is making his 99th argument and partner K. Winn Allen, his first—and they are doing it in rare back-to-back cases. O’Melveny & Myers’s Kendall Turner, also making a debut, faces Allen. Plus: Eric Feigin is stepping up to fill Michael Dreeben’s former position—deputy solicitor general handling criminal cases.
