"Supreme Court Tackles High-Profile Cases: Navigating the 2024-25 Term"
As we track the latest developments from the US Supreme Court, several key cases and decisions have garnered significant attention in recent days.
The Supreme Court has been busy with its 2024-25 term, which began on October 7, 2024. One of the high-profile cases scheduled for this term is *Garland v. VanDerStok*, which was argued on October 8. This case involves a challenge to a nationwide ban, with the Biden administration seeking review after the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the ban.
Another notable case is *Glossip v. Oklahoma*, set for oral arguments on October 9. This case revolves around a death row inmate in Oklahoma who is seeking a new trial due to allegations that prosecutors concealed evidence about the key witness's psychiatric care.
The Court is also set to address several other significant issues, including the regulation of "ghost guns" by the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, and the constitutionality of a Tennessee law prohibiting gender-affirming healthcare for transgender youth.
In terms of upcoming arguments, on December 2, the Court will hear *FDA v. Wages and White Lion Investments*, which concerns whether a Circuit Court of Appeals erred in setting aside an FDA order preventing the marketing of new e-cigarette products. Additionally, *United States v. Miller* will be argued on the same day, focusing on whether a bankruptcy trustee can avoid a debtor’s tax payment to the United States under specific bankruptcy laws.
On the horizon, *TikTok, Inc. v. Garland* is scheduled for December 18, where the Court will consider whether the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, as applied to TikTok, violates the First Amendment.
The Supreme Court has also made headlines recently by declining to hear certain cases, such as a challenge to California’s strict vehicle emissions rules and a case involving Peter Navarro’s fight to keep emails from the first Trump administration.
As the term progresses, the Court is expected to tackle a wide range of critical issues, from administrative law and environmental policy to First Amendment rights and criminal justice.
