SAN FRANCISCO—U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch got a preview of arguments he’s likely to hear next term at the high court at a forum on civics education at the Ninth Circuit’s judicial conference Monday afternoon.
Gorsuch participated in a ceremony recognizing high school students who won the Ninth Circuit Civics Contest, which this year focused on legal lessons learned from the Japanese internment during World War II. Both the winning essayist and video makers, whose winning entries were presented in full, made parallels between the executive order leading to Japanese internment with President Donald Trump’s travel ban executive order, which will be under review by Gorsuch and his colleagues at the U.S. Supreme Court next term.
