Roberts Again Sides With Liberal Supreme Court Justices in Disagreeing With Lower Court Interpretations
For the second time in as many weeks, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has sided with liberal Supreme Court justices to disagree with how lower courts have interpreted Supreme Court precedent, reports The Washington Post.
“On Tuesday, Roberts was pointed in saying the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has ‘misapplied’ a 2017 ruling that instructed that court to reconsider its analysis of whether death-row inmate Bobby James Moore was intellectually disabled, and thus ineligible for execution.” writes the Post‘s Robert Barnes.
And less than two weeks ago Roberts joined in blocking a Louisiana law that tightened restrictions on abortion providers.
