Clearing Up Some Misconceptions About the Supreme Court’s Shadow Docket—and Its Critics

Notre Dame Law School’s chapter of the American Constitution Society is excited to announce that Professor Steve Vladeck of the University of Texas School of Law will be joining us (virtually) for a lunch event Friday, Oct. 8. Professor Vladeck's talk will begin at 12:30pm and is titled "Clearing Up Some Misconceptions About the Supreme Court’s Shadow Docket—and Its Critics." The event is co-sponsored by the National Lawyers Guild, ACLU and LGBT Law Forum at Notre Dame Law School.

Professor Vladeck (@steve_vladeck) holds the Charles Alan Wright Chair in Federal Courts at the University of Texas School of Law and is a nationally recognized expert on the federal courts, among other topics. Professor Vladeck has argued multiple cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, testified before numerous congressional committees and Executive Branch agencies and commissions (including, most recently, the Senate Judiciary Committee). He is CNN’s lead Supreme Court analyst and is currently working on a book on the rise of the Supreme Court's "shadow docket," to be published in Spring 2023.

Notre Dame Law School Professor Samuel Bray will offer a brief response after Vladeck's remarks, and a Q&A will follow.
