Florida Judge Says Congress Can't Make Noncitizen Voting a Federal Crime
OA1303 - Rapid Response Friday kicks off with two major under-the-radar stories that you may not hear anywhere else about major federal decisions out of Florida and Massachusetts which may remove two important tools from Trump's fascist toolbox. We also explain how the subject of Matt's exclusive OA report from the front lines of deportation defense last July on how ICE was trying to rewrite the law of mandatory ICE detention has just become the single most important immigration case in the Supreme Court's coming term.
Preparing for a Wider (But More Unequal) Union
On 6 October 2026, the Commission presented its Communication “Preparing for a wider Union”. At the centre are so-called institutional safeguard clauses. These resemble an Article 7 TEU procedure for the late arrivals – but at a discount, featuring a much broader scope and much lower thresholds. I argue that this is not the way.

A New Frontier for Project-Based Climate Litigation
On 7 October 2026, the High Court of Australia held, by three judges to two, that a New South Wales (NSW) planning authority must consider conditions to limit a coal mine’s scope 3 emissions. This meant the authority could not simply say they had considered those emissions, representing 98% of the project’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions – they had to show they had considered planning conditions that would minimise them.
"This is not financial advice" is used on social media to give the façade of legal protection. How, then, to owners of private trading groups get away with it
There are numerous discord channels you can buy membership into where self-proclaimed analysts will make calls on which stock everyone should buy. The participants in the group usually pay to get in. Given this is therefore paid advice, how do the owners of these groups protect themselves from getting sued by someone in the group? How do they protect themselves from the fact that they are taking payments to solicit financial advice? submitted by /u/MasonNolanJr [link] [comments]
What do you call an accident/harm that is not negligence?
I was browsing reddit, and came across a post. Flight attendant's coffee pot was somehow held against a customers arm for a couple seconds causing some painful burnt skin. There was nothing wrong with the coffee pot. The coffee pot was sitting on it's base on the cart. The base nor the coffee pot was cracked or broken anyway. And the coffee pot was sitting correctly. Lets assume nothing the flight attendant did was out of the ordinary on the 1,000 flights they served. Is accidently burning someone negligence?

Justices urged to leave order in place barring enforcement of Trump administration’s new policy for transgender inmates
Lawyers for a group of transgender inmates in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons urged the Supreme Court on Thursday to leave in place an order by a federal judge in Washington, D.C., that bars the BOP from enforcing a new policy on healthcare for transgender inmates that would prevent such inmates from obtaining (among other things) hormone therapy and “social accommodations” (such as makeup, wigs, and padding).

Wild card justices and the “Kagan court” for criminal cases
If you read my columns closely, you know this: over the past two terms, 21 of the court’s 30 “pure” criminal law decisions have been pro-defendant or defense position. Eleven of 16 in the 2025-26 term, and 10 of 14 in the prior one. That’s 70%. Given a conservative court, does that stat surprise you? What justices are leading to these overall numbers, and who is leading the charge? Finally, does any of this suggest what we might look for in this term’s first criminal law case, Beaird v. United States, to be argued next Tuesday?

Dispute over broadcasting rates for political ads returns to the Supreme Court
The battle over favorable advertising rates for political parties and joint fundraising committees returned to the Supreme Court on its interim docket on Thursday morning, just a little over a month after the justices temporarily paused a ruling by a federal court that had limited the rates to candidates for federal office. In a 15-page filing, U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer asked the court to block an order by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit directing the Federal Communications Commission to decide by noon on Friday, Oct.
Institutional Ethics of AI in Legal Scholarship
Responding to the influx of AI into scholarly writing, in the legal domain and elsewhere, poses real challenges. It will be neither possible nor appropriate to develop a set of determinative rules covering all possible uses. Ethical frameworks do not operate in this way. Instead, they should be principles-based, allowing them to accommodate both the evolution of the technology and developments in scholarly practice taking place in the light of shared commitments to research integrity.
Thinking Machines, Thinking Lawyers
This symposium explores the relationship between AI and the production and delivery of legal knowledge. It also interrogates how emerging AI-based capabilities are shaping the way lawyers think, research, and act. It does not claim to present perfect answers, but is an attempt to initiate conversations on the multifaceted changes posed by AI-assisted capabilities to our traditional ways of doing legal research and teaching.
