POS 359--The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Tuesday 4/6, I first went over three recent lower court cases that interpreted decisions of the Supreme Court. One case dealt with the new restrictions that the District of Columbia imposed regarding the registration of firearms, as well as the use of assault weapons and high capacity magazines; the two other cases involved campaign finance laws that limited contributions to political parties and to "527" organizations. We then continued with our discussion of the the Christian Legal Society case, and we went over the background case of Rosenberger v. Univ. of Virginia. The assignment for Thursday 4/8 is to read and prepare to discuss the Petitioner's Reply Brief in the CLS case, available again via the Supreme Court's website.
