Law’s Jonathan Adler weighs in on Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s written opinions this term

Ketanji Brown Jackson ‘likely done’ writing Supreme Court decisions this term

Washington ExaminerJonathan Adler, the Johan Verheij Memorial Professor of Law, weighed in on Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s likely final decision this term, which is her sixth majority opinion. She wrote her latest opinion in Lora v. United States, making her the justice with the most authored opinions this term so far. “It would be ‘totally normal’ for Jackson to complete the term with six written opinions on the merits,” said Adler, noting the Supreme Court typically attempts to ‘equalize the case assignments’ among the nine justices, or divide them equally.
