Whitford and Benisek v. Lamone, the partisan gerrymandering cases, impact the upcoming mid-term elections? Will Janus v. AFSCME sound the death knell for public employee unions across the country? How will the Court’s arbitration agreements in Epic Systems affect employers and employees? What response, if any, is necessary from Congress following South Dakota v. Wayfair, the internet sales tax case? Did any broader themes of the Roberts Court emerge this term, and has Justice Gorsuch changed the balance of the Court? Please join us as our distinguished panels of practitioners and correspondents debate these and more from the 2017-2018 term.
