24 courses · 24 briefs
The Supreme Court of the United States sets the boundaries of American law on issues from individual rights to federal power. Each term brings cases that reshape entire areas of practice — and the Court's evolving approach to precedent, standing, and the shadow docket has itself become a subject of intense legal debate.
These courses and briefs offer expert analysis of the Court's most significant decisions and the legal principles behind them, taught by the constitutional law scholars and appellate advocates who study the Court most closely.
