Unpublished Opinions 11 | Bush v. Gore Energy
Podcast (unpublished-opinions): Play in new window | Download
In our first episode of 2025 we “livecast” a Supreme Court opinion whose release happened to cross into our pre-scheduled recording slot—the ruling in the TikTok case. Our comments’ relevance and timeliness may vary. The crew starts off, though, with a dive into the courts and court technology. Issues such as electronic filing, how the public accesses documents, and how we all access opinions. We also review the recent oral argument at the Supreme Court on the Texas age-verification law and what’s up these days on free speech and tiers of scrutiny. Finally, there’s recommendations on what to watch and read, both legal and non-legal.
