Supreme Court Begins First Day Of Historic Hearings

The Supreme Court has adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic by conducting hearings via teleconference, allowing the public to listen live for the first time. This marks a significant policy shift for the court, which has traditionally opposed live broadcasts. The justices will hear ten cases over six days, including President Trump's tax return subpoenas and Electoral College voting clarifications. The first case involves Booking.com's trademark dispute. Each attorney has two minutes to present their case, followed by questions from the justices in order of seniority. It remains uncertain if these changes will persist post-pandemic.
