Good morning and happy Monday! We’re back with another Supreme Court Brief. Avalon spoke to a federal appellate judge who spotted a mistake in how the high court is reporting the number of cert petitions each year. Brad, meanwhile, ran the numbers on advocates arguing before the high court this week. See who’s appearing for their first time below.
As always, thanks for reading and we welcome feedback and tips. You may contact Avalon Zoppo at [email protected] follow her on Twitter @AvalonZoppo. You can find Brad Kutner at [email protected] and @bradkutner.
