The Supreme Court seemed to hint that it might not hear arguments in most cases until next term — but extend the current term to hear a few cases, including three involving subpoenas for President Trump's financial records.
The U.S. Supreme Court has once again postponed oral arguments scheduled for this spring, but this time the court seemed to hint it might not hear arguments in most cases until next term.
The wording of the press release would seem to suggest, however, that the justices may postpone some cases until next term and extend the current term to hear a few particularly pressing cases. Some of the justices might prefer to defer the Trump cases, on theory that if Trump were to lose the election, the claims of presidential immunity would go away, but such a postponement would likely draw criticism that the court is acting in a political manner and in aiding President Trump.
Moreover, the justices themselves have adamantly opposed live broadcast of their proceedings, and they know quite well that if they allowed such coverage now, it would be hard to put the genie back in the bottle after the coronavirus crisis is over.
