Previewing the Supreme Court 2023
This lecture will preview the new Supreme Court term, highlighting cases to watch and their potential ramifications. Always a self-professed “Supreme Court junkie,” Professor Benesh is concerned with the increased politicization of the Court and by the seeming lack of restraint amongst its justices which appears to be leading to a crisis of legitimacy with real ramifications for the health of our democracy. Other than that, all is well.
