POS 359--The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Thursday 3/25, I collected your McDonald papers, and we went over them. I plan on returning them on Tuesday. I discussed a decision this week on student loan discharge in bankruptcy, United Student Aid v. Espinosa. The assignment for Tuesday 3/30 is to read Justice Alito's dissent from the denial of cert. in a free speech and religion case, Nurre v. Whitehead. Justice Alito's dissent can be found by going to the Supreme Court site
www.supremecourt.gov
select "orders and journals"
select "orders of the court"
select and download "order list 3/22"
this is a 27 page download, and the Alito dissent is found on pp. 22-27 of the download.
I also want you to watch the oral argument that was held last year in the Ninth Circuit in this case. That oral argument can be found at
