"Supreme Court Rulings Analyzed: Bondi v. VanDerStok, United States v. Miller, and More"
About this Episode
Hello and welcome to the SCOTUS News Tracker podcast. I'm Jason, your reporter for all the latest developments from the US Supreme Court.
On Wednesday, March 26, the Supreme Court released several significant opinions. One of the key cases was _Bondi v. VanDerStok_, where the Court upheld the ATF's 2022 Rule interpreting the Gun Control Act of 1968. The ruling determined that the ATF's interpretation, which covers products that can be readily converted into operational firearms or functional frames or receivers, known as "ghost guns," is not facially inconsistent with the Act. The decision was supported by a majority of the justices, with Justices Sotomayor, Kavanaugh, and Jackson each filing concurring opinions, while Justices Thomas and Alito dissented.
Another notable case decided on the same day was _United States v. Miller_, although details on this specific case are not as widely available as those for _Bondi v. VanDerStok_.
Earlier in the week, on March 21, the Court issued an important decision in _Delligatti v. United States_. Here, the Court ruled that the knowing or intentional causation of injury or death, whether by act or omission, necessarily involves the "use" of "physical force" against another person within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. §924(c)(3)(A). This decision was unanimous among the participating justices, with Justice Gorsuch and Justice Jackson joining in a dissenting opinion.
Also on March 21, the Court decided _Thompson v. United States_, where it was held that Title 18 U.S.C. §1014, which prohibits "knowingly mak[ing] any false statement," does not criminalize statements that are misleading but not false. This decision was unanimous, with Justices Alito and Jackson filing concurring opinions.
In addition to these decisions, the Supreme Court has several upcoming cases and hearings. For instance, the Court is set to hear oral arguments in disputes over which federal courts should handle lawsuits related to the Clean Air Act, specifically in the cases _Environmental Protection Agency v. Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC_ and _Oklahoma v. Environmental Protection Agency_.
