It was a pretty big week at the Supreme Court. First, we talk about what the heck is going with expiring execution drugs in Arkansas, and how that plays out within SCOTUS chambers. Then, for the first time since the beginning of this podcast, we had nine justices at oral argument. And even though Perry v. Merit Systems Protections Board is kind of a boring case, Justice Gorsuch gave us something to talk about. Then, we get into the long-awaited Trinity Lutheran case, complete with audio from Justices Kennedy and Breyer. Finally, it's our last oral argument preview of the term-- but don't worry, we still have a couple months of opinions to look forward to.
