Latham & Watkins Forum—Supreme Court (P)review
40 Washington Square South NY ,10012 (view map)
Each year, this program highlights major rulings from the Supreme Court’s recently concluded term as well as potentially significant cases on tap for the upcoming term. There is no shortage of material. Among the headline-making opinions handed down over the summer were decisions related to presidential immunity, the administrative state, access to medication abortion and emergency abortion care, guns, and restrictions on the homeless. Already teed up for October Term 2024 are cases concerning parental rights and gender-affirming care, the First Step Act, gun regulation, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. And then there’s the emergency or “shadow” docket, which continues to be active, drawing criticism and scrutiny. The Court itself as an institution has also been the subject of extraordinary attention, including calls for it to be reformed. At this Forum, panelists with a range of experience and perspectives will tackle these topics, and we’ll leave time for questions from the audience.
