The Shadow Docket: SCOTUS’s Stealth Rulings - Webinar
- The U.S. Supreme Court has always had the authority to issue emergency rulings in exceptional circumstances. But since 2017, the Court has dramatically expanded its use of the behind-the-scenes “shadow docket,” regularly making decisions that affect millions of Americans without public hearings or explanation, via cryptic late-night rulings that leave lawyers, and citizens, scrambling.
- Georgetown Law professor and SCOTUS expert, Stephen Vladeck, will discuss the history of the shadow docket and the impact of the current excessive “emergency” rulings, including many contrary to decades of Supreme Court precedent.
- This “ripped from the headlines” presentation, the latest in CBA-CLE’s ongoing SCOTUS series, will be moderated by Colorado Solicitor General Shannon Stevenson. It is a must-see for all Colorado attorneys.
- CLE CREDITS: This program has been submitted for 1 General Credit
