"Supreme Court Lifts Restrictions on L.A. Immigration Stops
A federal judge had ordered agents not to make indiscriminate stops relying on factors like a person’s ethnicity or that they speak Spanish."

Most cases have more structure to the written decisions, so don't take this one as indicative of how you might muddle through a regular decision.

If you have a "favorite," I'd say read the Wikipedia page and then the decision. Since covid, I'm glad we can hear the arguments presented to the court, usually just an hour or two. I find that helps, even if I don't read the entire results at the end. But after hearing her comments last night, I'm going to give it a try.
