Description

As of the latest updates, the U.S. Supreme Court is gearing up for a busy argument session in March. The Court has released its March argument schedule, which includes several significant cases. Starting on March 24 and running through April 2, the justices will hear arguments in nine cases over six days. Notable cases include a dispute over a congressional voting map in Louisiana that created a second majority-Black district, challenges to EPA regulations, and a case involving the FCC's internet and phone services program for underserved areas.

In addition to the upcoming arguments, the Court is also dealing with ongoing legal battles, such as the government's emergency application to stay the nationwide preliminary injunction of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). This application, filed in the waning hours of 2024, seeks to put on hold the reporting deadlines and enforcement of the CTA, which were ordered by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito requested a response from the respondents-plaintiffs by January 10, 2025, and the outcome of this application remains uncertain, potentially impacting companies and individuals affected by the CTA.

On the judicial front, there are no recent major decisions or opinions announced from the Supreme Court in the last few days. However, the Court is expected to issue opinions on various cases as part of its regular term, with live coverage available for these announcements.
