Justices do not grant any new cases

The Supreme Court issued an uneventful order list on Monday morning, the second released from the justices’ private conference on Friday, Nov. 13. On Friday, the justices added one case to their merits docket for the 2020-21 term: Cedar Point Nursery v. Hassid, a challenge to a California regulation that gives union organizers access to the property of agricultural growers. The justices did not add any new cases to their merits docket on Monday, nor did they ask for the views of the federal government in any new cases.

The justices will meet again on Friday, Nov. 20. We expect orders from that conference on Monday, Nov. 23, although – like last week – grants from the conference could come as early as Friday afternoon.
