Recent Decisions


February 28, 2023
         
Delaware v. Pennsylvania (145, Orig.)
Recommendations in the Special Master’s First Interim Report concluding that the escheatment of certain financial instruments relevant to this case should follow the Federal Disposition Act are adopted to the extent they are consistent with the Court’s opinion, and Delaware’s objections are overruled.

         
Bittner v. United States (21-1195)
The Bank Secrecy Act’s $10,000 maximum penalty for the nonwillful failure to file a compliant report accrues on a per-report, not a per-account, basis.



February 22, 2023
         
Bartenwerfer v. Buckley (21-908)
Pursuant to §523(a)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor like Kate Bartenwerfer who is liable for her partner’s fraud cannot discharge that debt in bankruptcy, regardless of her own culpability.

         
Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. v. Hewitt (21-984)
Respondent Hewitt was not an executive exempt from the FLSA’s overtime pay guarantee; daily-rate workers, of whatever income level, qualify as paid on a salary basis only if the conditions set out in 29 CFR §541.604(b) are met.

         
Cruz v. Arizona (21-846)
The Arizona Supreme Court’s holding below—that Lynch v. Arizona, 578 U. S. 613, did not represent a “significant change in the law” for purposes of permitting Cruz to file a successive petition for state postconviction relief under Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1(g)—is not an adequate state-law ground supporting that judgment.

Putting Pen to Paper


On the occasion of Justice Harlan Fiske Stone’s 15th anniversary on the Supreme Court, his law clerks presented him with a gold-plated bronze desk set. The eight-piece Tiffany set included a clock, calendar, square inkwell, round inkwell, three-chambered tray, note pad with cover, and a pair of desk blotter ends.

In 1941, after 16 years of service, President Franklin D. Roosevelt named Stone Chief Justice to replace Charles Evans Hughes. With his appointment, Stone became the only person to have held every seat in succession on the Bench. Stone’s tenure as Chief Justice was cut short by his sudden death in 1946.
