MONDAY LAW DORK: University drag ban arguments focus on SCOTUS nondiscrimination policy decision. In response to questions from Judge James Ho, the student group's lawyer, from FIRE, said he was not there to "defend" the 2010 CLS v. Martinez decision. lawdork.com/p/university-d…
NEW LAW DORK: The Supreme Court's men aren't here to protect you. (Unless you're reading this, Donald Trump.) lawdork.com/p/the-supreme-…
THURSDAY LAW DORK: SCOTUS approach to Trump's immunity claim likely to delay D.C. case further. Trump appeared likely to lose his argument for absolute immunity, but the court will likely give him something else he desperately wants: Delay. lawdork.com/p/scotus-trump…
NEW LAW DORK: In E.R. abortion care case, the justices face the questions of a post-Roe America. The women justices spoke out about the real consequences of the case, but the decision will likely come down to two men: Roberts and Kavanaugh. lawdork.com/p/emtala-abort…
NEW LAW DORK: Oklahoma AG tells SCOTUS that state court decision allowing Glossip's execution cannot stand; refusing to throw out Richard Glossip's conviction in the face of "grave prosecutorial misconduct" has "no valid place in our system of justice." lawdork.com/p/oklahoma-ag-…
NEW LAW DORK: SCOTUS, but not Roberts, struggles with whether cities can criminalize homelessness. The liberal justices tried to expose a dystopian, unfeeling argument — but it wasn't clear whether it would be enough on Monday. lawdork.com/p/scotus-grant…
NEW LAW DORK VIDEO: On Trump's immunity claim, the history (or lack thereof), and its consequences. Lawyers Kathleen Hartnett and Kristy Parker and historian Holly Brewer discuss the upcoming SCOTUS arguments and the briefs they submitted in the case. lawdork.com/p/law-dork-vid…
NEW LAW DORK: Appeals court rules that Title IX protects trans student in challenge to WV sports ban. A narrow ruling — with a noxious dissent. lawdork.com/p/fourth-circu…
NEW LAW DORK: The Fifth Circuit did the absolute least it should do this week. The court issued a trio of orders declining to have the full court review decisions that conservatives seeking to transform the law lost before three-judge panels. lawdork.com/p/fifth-circui…
NEW LAW DORK: Conservative justices question overcriminalization now, with Jan. 6 case. The case over whether the Justice Department is using a conspiracy law too broadly could have implications for Donald Trump's federal charges in D.C. lawdork.com/p/scotus-jan-6…
MONDAY LAW DORK: Supreme Court allows Idaho ban on trans minors' medical care to go into effect. Although the opinions focused on the ongoing debate over "universal injunctions," it's trans kids who will face the consequences of Monday's high court order. lawdork.com/p/scotus-idaho…
NEW LAW DORK: Arizona's near-total abortion ban likely blocked until at least June, as next steps are planned. Law Dork has the 1971 lawsuit underlying this week's ruling. Also: Last Week Tonight's Chris McDaniel exposes death penalty drug sales. lawdork.com/p/arizona-abor…
FRIDAY LAW DORK: Full Eighth Circuit holds low-key arguments over Arkansas's minor trans care ban. Half of the 10 judges hearing the case asked no questions. The medical care of transgender minors in Arkansas is on the line. lawdork.com/p/eighth-circu…
WEDNESDAY LAW DORK: A judicial nomination under attack — and now in peril. The attacks on Adeel Mangi’s nomination give way to appalling cowardice from a trio of Democratic senators. Also: The next Supreme Court argument sitting is a big one. lawdork.com/p/adeel-mangi-…
NEW LAW DORK: A Civil War-era abortion ban will soon control lives in Arizona — for now. On Tuesday, the Arizona Supreme Court held that a near-total criminal abortion ban first passed in 1864 can be enforced. But, a November vote could change that. lawdork.com/p/arizona-civi…
NEW LAW DORK: Don't fall for Trump's new abortion position claims. The presidential candidate’s purported abortion position is unrealistic, unworkable, and unpopular. He's just saying it because he wants to win. He told us as much in the video. lawdork.com/p/dont-fall-fo…
NEW LAW DORK: The Law Dork Nine: Robbie Kaplan. The Kaplan Hecker & Fink founding partner talks with Law Dork about Moscow, Elon Musk, and Oh, Mary! 🔒 lawdork.com/p/the-law-dork…
SUNDAY LAW DORK: The Fifth Circuit's lawlessness is now spreading from California to D.C. Two federal judges in Texas recently granted motions to transfer cases to other courts. Then the Fifth Circuit got involved. Now, it's a nationwide mess. lawdork.com/p/fifth-circui…
NEW LAW DORK: Cannon's order puts special counsel in a bind. Although Judge Aileen Cannon rejected Trump's request to have the case dismissed, she also refused to rule on the relevance of the Presidential Records Act in the case. lawdork.com/p/cannons-pres…
NEW LAW DORK: Oklahoma, once planning a killing spree, readies its first execution of 2024. The state plans to kill Michael Smith on Thursday. Also: The Fifth Circuit hears a second argument of Texas's S.B. 4 criminal immigration law. lawdork.com/p/oklahoma-exe…

@PartnerJunior I'm talking about the lack of any headings in the argument section to preview the argument, not these things.
Finally, Group 4 includes four modest circuits which would like to signal that "United States Court of Appeals" is much more important than which actual circuit they are. They agree on that but on absolutely nothing else. /x
Okay if you REALLY want me to I will critique the cover pages for all of the federal courts of appeals. Let's start with the First Circuit. The vibe here is "It's 1984 and we have to type our opinions on pre-printed letterhead, which we can't afford to print in color." /1
