Well, the Supreme Court is now in session once again. Does anyone out there want to dicuss some of the cases? From now until July they should hear about 180 cases (a record I think) out of 5000 that requested to be heard. Topics of the cases to be heard include jury selection, zoning laws, separation of church and state (in at least two cases), affirmative action, and more. Does anyone out there have a favorite? Yes abortion is also going to be heard but lets keep that one in net.abortion where it belongs. Comments Welcome, Tom Hill

As you know, Judge Tanner's decision against Washington State on comparable worth was overturned last month by the 9th circuit (I'll post some of the 9th's reasoning as soon as I have time to look up the decision). The Supremes have agreed to hear an appeal. Stay tuned. Joel Gilman

Where are the Court's decisions published? I'm not sure that I want to
wade through the documents in their entirity, so abstracts would be ok.
