Supreme Court justices are set for a short week of arguments while the country awaits Joe Biden’s decision on his choice to replace Justice Stephen Breyer. An announcement is expected by month’s end.
With the Presidents Day holiday on Monday, the justices are hearing two cases on Tuesday over tribal gaming and double jeopardy for American Indians. A procedural argument follows Wednesday over the Trump-era public-charge rule that blocked green cards for noncitizens needing public benefits.
Cases and Controversies gives a sneak peek as the justices return from their mid-winter break.
