Good morning, everyone! Welcome to our live blog. We're expecting orders from last week's conference at 9:30 am, and opinions at 10 am.
Last week the justices acted on one petition out of Indiana involving abortion, but a second petition, involving a requirement that a woman who wants an abortion obtain an ultrasound at least 18 hours before the abortion, was not redistributed for the conference last week.
We have three new grants. The first is Allen v. Cooper, involving Congress's authority to abrogate state sovereign immunity from suit in copyright infringement cases.
The second case is Retirement Plans Committee v. Jander, involving the pleading standard for ERISA cases alleging a breach of duty of prudence.
The third case is Holguin-Hernandez v. US, involving whether a criminal defendant must formally object when his sentence is pronounced in order to preserve the issue for appeal.
