Recent Decisions


April 17, 2026
         
Chevron USA Inc. v. Plaquemines Parish (24-813)
Chevron has plausibly alleged a close relationship between its challenged crude-oil production and the performance of its federal aviation gas refining duties and has therefore satisfied the “relating to” requirement of the federal officer removal statute, 28 U. S. C. §1442(a)(1).



March 31, 2026
         
Chiles v. Salazar (24-539)
Colorado’s law banning conversion therapy, as applied to petitioner’s talk therapy, regulates speech based on viewpoint, and the lower courts erred by failing to apply sufficiently rigorous First Amendment scrutiny.



March 25, 2026
         
Rico v. United States (24-1056)
The Sentencing Reform Act of 1984 does not authorize a rule automatically extending a defendant’s term of supervised release when the defendant fails to report to a probation officer.

         
Cox Communications, Inc. v. Sony Music Entertainment (24-171)
Internet service provider Cox Communications neither induced its users’ infringement of copyrighted works nor provided a service tailored to infringement, and accordingly Cox is not contributorily liable for the infringement of Sony’s copyrights.

Cushing’s Finest Hour


On display in the Justices’ Dining Room is a mahogany tall clock, originally owned by Justice William Cushing, who served on the Supreme Court from 1790 to 1810. Designed by William Claggett (1694‐1748), a well-known 18th-century clockmaker, the timepiece features a sarcophagus top and a brass and silvered dial. Today, only 68 clocks by Claggett are known to exist, making this treasured Cushing family heirloom quite rare.
