Justice Alito Recuses Himself From Major Supreme Court Climate Case
Original: Alito Recuses Himself From New Term’s Major Climate Case
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has recused himself from one of the new term's major climate-related cases. The move leaves the Court with eight justices able to weigh in, raising the possibility of a 4-4 split. The specific reason for the recusal has not been detailed in initial reports, and reaction has so far been limited to straightforward coverage of the announcement.
Why now: Alito's recusal could affect the outcome of a high-stakes climate case before the Supreme Court's new term.
