The Supreme Court launched its new term on Monday, the first Monday in October, and Supreme Court Brief, NLJ's three-year-old subscription newsletter, covered it all. Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. introduced the court's new clerk to the public, and the justices heard two oral arguments -- both of which seemed to leave the justices dissatisfied or at least uncertain about the outcome. We also have a feature story on Harvey Levin, the Illinois lawyer who is the named plaintiff in the age discrimination case Madigan v. Levin heard by the justices Monday. The court also issued a 94-page list of orders, mostly listing the roughly 2,000 petitions in which it denied review. A story in the newsletter highlights key orders from the list. We also offer a need-to-read selection of links to court-related articles from other publications. In Tuesday's edition, among other things, we'll report on arguments in McCutcheon v. Federal Election Commission, this term's campaign finance blockbuster case.
Put the internet to work for you.
