A new book from the American Bar Association’s Judicial Division, “The Supreme Court in Transition: October Term 2020,” looks at the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2020-21 term, explaining each case in a neutral manner, neither praising nor criticizing the decisions.
Written by Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the University of California, Berkeley School of Law, the book looks back at major cases addressed by the court and provides an informed focus on the implications of those decisions. Chemerinsky organizes the case essays by key topics of each decision, including:
Antitrust and college sports
Bankruptcy
Civil rights litigation
Criminal law and procedure
Federal jurisdiction
Fee exercise of religion
Freedom of speech
Immigration law
Indian law
Intellectual property
Personal jurisdiction
Separation of powers
The takings clause
Voting rights
