Good morning and welcome to Supreme Court Brief! Judge Amy Coney Barrett had her own “opening day” on Monday as the Senate Judiciary Committee began hearings on her Supreme Court nomination with opening statements by committee members and Barrett herself. Today the questioning begins. We checked in on former Supreme clerks on the committee and former Barrett clerks. Meanwhile, across the street, the justices hear arguments in a closely-watched bankruptcy case with real world implications for car owners. PLUS: Another memorable Breyer question in the Google v. Oracle argument.
