: How Appealing"No new grants; ruling on tax evasion"
"No new grants; ruling on tax evasion": Lyle Denniston has this post at "SCOTUSblog."
The U.S. Supreme Court today issued two decisions in argued cases.
In Warner-Lambert Co. v. Kent, No. 06-1498, a case argued on Monday of last week, the decision under review was affirmed by an equally divided Court. You can access the per curiam affirmance at this link and the oral argument transcript at this link. The folks at the "Drug and Device Law" blog were only off by one vote in their prediction posted yesterday.
The Court's other ruling in an argued case issued today in Boulware v. United States, No. 06-1509. You can access Justice David H. Souter's opinion for a unanimous Court at this link and the oral argument transcript at this link.
You can access today's Order List at this link. Although there were no cases granted review today, the Court did request the views of the Solicitor General's Office on two cases.
