According to the Court’s docket, the Justices will hear six arguments over those two days, including matters which were originally set for the March 2020 docket that were postponed due to Covid-19 social distancing recommendations. Attorneys have been asked to join the live-streamed arguments 30 minutes prior to the Court’s convening.
During sitting weeks, the Supreme Court live-streams oral arguments via the Court’s website, www.lasc.org. The oral arguments set for June 8-9 will also be broadcast via the Court’s live-stream, https://livestream.lasc.org/.
