At its November 2, 2012 Conference, the Court will consider such issues as the constitutionality of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the scope of Constitution’s Treaty Power, and the interaction between the Federal Arbitration Act and state law.

This edition of “Petitions to watch” features petitions raising issues that Tom has determined to have a reasonable chance of being granted, although we post them here without consideration of whether they present appropriate vehicles in which to decide those issues.
