Friday round-up
on Nov 24, 2017 at 7:39 am
Briefly:
- In Episode 210 of SCOTUS 101, Elizabeth Slattery and Tiffany Bates talk about “what they’re thankful for and the Federalist Society convention.”
- At his eponymous blog, Ross Runkel looks at Digital Realty Trust Inc. v. Somers, which involves the whistleblower protections of the Dodd-Frank Act and which will be argued next week.
- In an analysis for The New York Times, Eduardo Porter discusses Oil States Energy Services v. Greene’s Energy Group, another case on next week’s argument docket, which challenges the constitutionality of a process used to determine the validity of existing patents; he urges the justices to “consider the ramifications of their decision on the United States economy.”
