Monday round-up

Briefly:

• At Politico, Marianne LeVine and Sarah Ferris report that “[t]he Supreme Court is expected to rule in the coming weeks on the fate of an Obama-era program to shield undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, delivering a jolt to Washington amid a global pandemic and historic unrest over the killing of African Americans at the hands of police.”
• Adam Liptak writes for The New York Times that “[l]ast week, Justice Sonia Sotomayor added her voice to the criticism” of the practices used by the “United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, which hears appeals from Alabama, Florida and Georgia,” to determine when prisoners can “challenge their convictions in federal court[].”
• In an op-ed for the Kansas City Star, Dylan Hosmer-Quint argues that “[w]ith several capital appeals now pending before the court, including the first federal executions in decades, it’s crucial to examine the justices’ decision-making process.”
