Real court arguments, crisp audio, with context. Court recordings can be difficult to follow, and many suffer from poor audio quality. This podcast enhances the audio, provides a brief introduction to each case, and explains legal concepts that may be unfamiliar to some listeners. We hope these enhancements make oral argument recordings easier to understand, more accessible, and more enjoyable to listen to. Recordings come from the courts' own public releases; Supreme Court timing is derived locally from the Court's official transcript and audio. 政治・政府 政治学

    Mark Freund, et al. v. Douglas A. Collins — CAVC (argued August 13, 2026)
    2026/08/17

    The Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims reviews a proposed class settlement in Freund v. Collins. The class covers VA claimants whose legacy appeal files were closed in VACOLS between December 12, 1990, and February 6, 2025, for lacking a timely substantive appeal and remain closed. Under the proposal, VA would manually review all 28,258 files flagged as likely to contain timely appeals, reactivate qualifying appeals, and let other class members request review. As many as 64,599 additional files would receive individualized notice. The court will decide whether the settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate.

  • Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Corporación Cimex, S.A. — SCOTUS (argued February 23, 2026)

    Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Corporación Cimex, S.A. — SCOTUS (argued February 23, 2026)
    2026/08/16
    The Supreme Court considers whether Exxon can sue Cuban state-owned companies over oil assets Cuba confiscated in 1960. The Helms-Burton Act lets a United States claimant sue for trafficking in confiscated property, a term that includes knowingly using or benefiting from it. The Act defines a person to include a foreign state's agencies and instrumentalities. Sovereign immunity ordinarily shields those entities from lawsuits. Abrogating that immunity means Congress removes it by statute. Exxon says Helms-Burton does that on its own. The Cuban companies say Exxon must also satisfy an exception in the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. The D.C. Circuit agreed with the companies. The Supreme Court later reversed, six to three, holding that Helms-Burton itself removes the immunity of Cuban agencies and instrumentalities. Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Corporación Cimex, S.A.

  • United States v. Carla Jackson and Teldrin Foster — 11th Cir. (argued August 14, 2026)

    United States v. Carla Jackson and Teldrin Foster — 11th Cir. (argued August 14, 2026)
    2026/08/15

    The Eleventh Circuit hears Carla Jackson and Teldrin Foster's appeals from jury convictions arising from a Paycheck Protection Program fraud case. Foster was convicted on fraud, conspiracy, false-statement, and money-laundering counts involving fourteen loan applications. Jackson was convicted on two money-laundering counts. Jackson will challenge whether the government proved she knew the funds came from crime or intended to conceal their source. Foster will challenge the trial court's decision allowing co-defendant Ricky Dixon, who had pleaded guilty and been sentenced, to invoke the Fifth Amendment instead of testifying. The United States will ask the court to affirm.

    United States v. Carla Jackson and Teldrin Foster (No. 24-11785) — U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, argued August 14, 2026.
