The U.S. Supreme Court issued an orders list from last Friday’s conference today. No new criminal cases were taken up for full briefing and argument.

Two civil cases of interest were taken up. United States v. Zubaydah, No. 20-827 involves the state secrets privilege and a discovery demand by a terrorist detained in Guantanamo Bay. New York State Rifle v. Corlett, No. 20-843 is a Second Amendment case involving concealed carry licenses.

The Court issued a summary reversal in a Ninth Circuit habeas corpus case, which will be the subject of another post.
