Arguing Counsel

Panel That Day

2 of 3 cases argued March 19, 2025 before this panel have been decided.

Authorship Outlook

With the 2 decided siblings already credited to Judge Agee and Judge Harris, the remaining opinion is most likely Judge King's — they wrote at least one opinion in 77 of their 116 prior multi-case days.

2 of the 3 opinions from this panel have been decided. Decided opinions have been authored by Judge Agee and Judge Harris.

This is a statistical guess based on prior sittings in this dataset, not a prediction of the ruling.

Predicted Opinion Release

Likely between November 14, 2026 and October 2, 2028, with March 4, 2027 the most likely date.

Argued 588 days ago. The case has now outlasted nearly every comparable prior case (100% of mass consumed); a separate writing or a contentious majority is likely in progress.
