Your host, Jim Santelle gets right into the moment with so much news happening in the world of law. We discuss the new docket coming up for The Supreme Court starting this Fall and what we should expect. Next, a fully funded, mostly completed green energy project is being stopped for "security reasons", but we know it's because the Commander-In-Chief is swinging at windmills.

Then, Supreme Court Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett has a new book out and there a lot of questions, many of which aren't being answered in its pages. Jim speaks to the history of her decision making process on the bench, including unlikely alliances.

Jim goes further into the upcoming docket which has a case that seeks to upend a landmark decision from just a decade ago. He also discusses some of the other high profile cases to be brought before the Court this year including one whose outcome will have huge impact on the fight for Transgender rights, as well as a case that deals with US voting rights. The latter is seen as the biggest case to be reviewed in this session.

To round out the show, Jim gives a quick overview on some of the important cases coming out of courts from around the country. He also takes your calls and reads your texts and we thank you for reaching out with your questions and comments.
