The Supreme Court Isn’t Interested in Facts - The Atlantic
• The Atlantic reports that conservative Supreme Court justices are increasingly ignoring evidentiary records and factual findings established by lower courts. • Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson highlighted this trend in a dissent, noting that the Court disregarded district court findings regarding the "incredible strain" Trump's orders placed on state officials. • This shift is significant because it undermines "clear-error deference," a procedural rule that prevents reviewing courts from overturning lower court facts unless they are clearly erroneous.
