SCOTUS will announce opinions on Monday "on the homepage."
But the "Court will not take the Bench."
At some point this morning, the Supreme Court updated the announcements for tomorrow, Monday, March 4:
The Court may announce opinions on the homepage beginning at 10 a.m. The Court will not take the Bench.
I don't recall seeing such a notation before. Other than during the COVID-period, merits opinions are announced from the bench. And emergency docket opinions are posted on the web site without any advance warning to the public. (The press may get a heads-up.) But here, we have advanced notice of a decision without a bench handdown.
Could this be the Section 3 case? Colorado will hold its primary on Tuesday, so a ruling on the insurrection matter on Monday would be just in time.
