Recent Decisions


May 30, 2024
         
Cantero v. Bank of America, N. A. (22-529)
The Second Circuit failed to analyze whether New York’s interest-on-escrow law is preempted as applied to national banks in a manner consistent with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and Barnett Bank of Marion Cty., N. A. v. Nelson, 517 U. S. 25.

         
National Rifle Association of America v. Vullo (22-842)
The NRA plausibly alleged that respondent violated the First Amendment by coercing regulated entities to terminate their business relationships with the NRA in order to punish or suppress the NRA’s gun-promotion advocacy.

         
Thornell v. Jones (22-982)
The Ninth Circuit’s grant of habeas relief on Jones’s ineffective assistance of counsel claim was based on an erroneous interpretation and application of Strickland v. Washington, 466 U. S. 668.



May 23, 2024
         
Coinbase v. Suski (23-3)
Where parties have agreed to two contracts—one sending arbitrability disputes to arbitration, and the other either explicitly or implicitly sending arbitrability disputes to the courts—a court must decide which contract governs.

         
Brown v. United States (22-6389)
For purposes of the Armed Career Criminal Act’s 15-year mandatory minimum sentence on certain defendants with three or more previous convictions, a state drug conviction counts as an ACCA predicate if it involved a drug on the federal schedules at the time of that offense.

         
Alexander v. South Carolina State Conference of the NAACP (22-807)
Because the District Court’s finding that race predominated in the design of South Carolina’s first congressional district was clearly erroneous, the District Court’s racial-gerrymandering and vote-dilution holdings cannot stand.

Oliver’s Excellent Adventure


Upon passing the Massachusetts bar exam in 1867, Oliver Wendell Holmes was ready for a vacation. On May 16, he set off from Boston with his friend Charles P. Horton for a salmon fishing trip to Grand Lake Stream, Maine. They first traveled to Saint John in New Brunswick, Canada, to meet up with another old friend, actor James W. Lanergan, who had moved there to manage the city’s Dramatic Lyceum. Before heading out, the trio visited a photography studio where they clowned theatrically with some of their fishing gear. Unfortunately, there is no record of their angling success from their week in the great outdoors.

 

Oliver Wendell Holmes, seated on the floor, plays the straight man beside Horton, who looks up with mock concern at Lanergan, who leans over him melodramatically. The names below are written in Holmes’ hand. Another photograph of the three is in the collection of Harvard Law School.
