Today's rulings in argued cases from the U.S. Supreme Court

Today's rulings in argued cases from the U.S. Supreme Court: Earlier today, while I was away from the blog, the Court issued two rulings in argued cases.

Justice Stephen G. Breyer delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court in Hertz Corp. v. Friend, No. 08-1107. You can access the oral argument transcript at this link. The Associated Press reports that "Court says business HQ is where executives are." And at "Althouse," Ann has a post titled "Today, all 9 Justices embrace a clear rule over a more nuanced and litigation-breeding interpretation."

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg delivered the opinion of the Court in Florida v. Powell, No. 08-1175. You can access the oral argument transcript at this link. All of the Justices joined in the opinion of the Court, except for Justice John Paul Stevens, who issued a dissenting opinion, and Justice Breyer, who joined in Part II of both the majority and dissenting opinions. Jesse J. Holland of The Associated Press reports that "Supreme Court OKs Florida Miranda rights warnings." Greg Stohr of Bloomberg News reports that "U.S. High Court Backs Police on Questioning Suspects." And Reuters reports that "Court upholds police warning of suspect rights."
