Happy Friday Everyone!
Usually today would be a conference day (still technically is), however the justices will instead be convening to hear two (consolidated) cases for oral argument. The cases stem from the law that initiates a ban on the popular platform TikTok if it is not divested from its owner company Bytedance.
Over the past few weeks, both parties have been arguing via briefs whether the law should be upheld or struck down. President-Elect Trump also wrote an amicus brief, asking the justices to put a pause on the law while his incoming administration “seeks a political resolution” on the matter.
Justices will start arguments for the two cases at 10amET, here is a link to listen live as they occur: https://www.supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments/live.aspx

JUST IN: Supreme Court will release one or more opinions in argued cases tomorrow Friday January 17. The justices will not however take the bench. While we don’t know which opinions will be handed down, given the timeline of the TikTok ban, many have indicated that we could have a decision in that case tomorrow.

Supreme Court Announcements/Decisions
NEW: In unusual circumstances, Supreme Court will announce one or more opinions in argued cases tomorrow morning at 10amET. The Court will not be taking the bench. Many legal experts are predicting a possible Colorado decision tomorrow.
A quick retrospect, the last time the Court issued a last minute opinion day (while not taking the bench) indicated an unsigned decision from a recent (in the context above, Trump ballot case) controversial case. Since the TikTok ban is set to begin on January 19, the parallels of the two circumstances are very similar, which indicates the likelihood of the TikTok case being decided tomorrow.

This morning the justices will release one or more opinions in argued cases so far this term starting at 10amET. Since the justices will not be taking the bench, the opinions will be immediately available on the Supreme Court website, and we will provide you all with the opinion(s) once made available. Although we don’t know for sure which cases are being handed down, or how many, it’s likely we’ll have something related to the TikTok case, given the timeline.
