First Monday in October

The U.S. Supreme Court began its new session this morning. The Court issued an orders list from the Long Conference. As expected, no new cases were taken up.

Only one case is on the docket for argument today. The Court grapples with Congress’s sloppy drafting in the case of Pulsifer v. United States, No. 22-340. Two civil cases are on the docket for tomorrow and Wednesday.

No action on the Glossip case, which will be relisted for another conference. (Update 10/2 pm: Well, that was quick. Glossip is relisted for the conference this Friday, October 6.)

Amy Howe has summaries of all 12 cases accepted for review last Friday at her blog.
