Federal courts make it harder to 'judge-shop' like was done in abortion pill case
nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/federal-courts-make-harder-judge-shop-was-done-abortion-pill-case-rcna143060
Quick Glance: Random Judge Assignments to Combat 'Judge Shopping' in U.S. Courts
- Federal judiciary leaders have introduced a policy mandating the random assignment of judges in civil cases with statewide or national significance to address concerns regarding 'judge shopping' in single-judge divisions.
- Courts can still assign cases to a single-judge division if they do not involve seeking statewide or federal actions through declaratory judgment or injunctive relief.
- The random case-assignment policy aims to deter judge shopping and prevent cases from being assigned based on the perceived merits or abilities of a specific judge, promoting proceedings' impartiality and enhancing public trust in the federal Judiciary.
- While some experts welcome the policy change, others question the Judicial Conference's authority and argue that Congress should provide solutions rather than a policymaking body.

Quick Glance: Legal Battle Over Texas Immigration Law Intensifies Again
- A federal appeals court issued a ruling late on Tuesday that once more halts Texas from apprehending migrants suspected of unlawfully entering the United States, shortly after the Supreme Court implemented the stringent new immigration law.
- Earlier in the day, a split decision by the Supreme Court granted Texas permission to enforce a statute granting law enforcement extensive authority to detain migrants believed to have illegally crossed the border while the legal conflict regarding the provision unfolds.
- Opponents view the legislation as the most extreme effort by a state to regulate immigration since the passage of an Arizona law over a decade ago, parts of which were invalidated by the Supreme Court.
- The dispute over the immigration statute in Texas is among several legal clashes between Texan officials and the Biden administration concerning the extent to which the state can monitor the Texas-Mexico border and deter unauthorized border crossings.
