FAQs: Opinion announcement days (UPDATED: June 20)

We expect the Court to issue opinions tomorrow morning (Thursday) at 10 a.m. We will be live blogging beginning at around 9 a.m. (All times are Eastern.) We have put together a list of some of the commonly asked questions about opinion announcements that we have gotten during recent live blogs, along with our responses, but please let us know during the live blog if you have a question that you don’t see answered here.

Question: What opinions will the Court issue?
Answer: Unlike some other courts, the Court doesn’t announce in advance which cases will be decided on a particular day. The only time we have a good sense is the very last day, when the Court issues its final rulings.

Question: How many opinions will the Court issue?
Answer: The Court also does not announce in advance how many opinions it expects to release on any particular day.

Question: What’s the last day the Court will issue opinions?
Answer: We don’t yet know when the last day will be. Based on past practice, the most likely days are June 26 and 27. Although we can’t say for sure, we may know more about next week’s schedule as early as today.

Question: What cases are still undecided?
Answer: There are still fourteen cases awaiting decision; you can find a full list of the cases in this post by Kedar Bhatia.
