US Supreme Court sets “unprecedented” time for oral arguments on ACA
The Supreme Court announced in mid-December that it was scheduling 3 days of oral arguments before the Court on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; the arguments will be heard on March 26-28, 2012. The docket is available at http://www.supremecourt.gov/docket/PPAACA.aspx. According to a report by the Associated Press, 5 hours of oral arguments will be heard, an “unprecedented” amount that will fill the entire court calendar for the week. The most extensive arguments previously in the modern era involved the McCain-Feingold Act in 2003, which consumed 4 hours of argument. [Holland JJ.
