"Bold in a Honda SUV. So your local Honda dealer, ten 40 now. The U.S. Supreme Court will not be hearing arguments over title 42. Republican states wanted the court to intervene and keep the COVID era immigration policy in place. They argued if those restrictions were lifted, it would cause an even bigger surge at the border. But the Justice Department said the policy was moved because the president was lifting the COVID public health emergency. Let's take you live tonight to CBS News legal analyst thane Rosenbaum for some analysis here. We appreciate your time tonight. What is your understanding of why the Supreme Court made this move? So Dmitri, all that's happened so far is the Supreme Court took this oral argument, which were scheduled for March 1st off the calendar. Now that doesn't look like it's a good sign for the case going forward, but they haven't actually yet dismissed the case. All they simply said is we're not going to hear oral argument on it. You know, the Supreme Court likes to make decisions incrementally and it really loves to make decisions on procedural grounds, not on the merits on procedural grounds. So here's a classic example of a procedural problem, right? It's called mootness, the case is it's not really relevant anymore because the federal government has lifted the COVID emergency. So the title 42 to the extent to which that it is a public health provision, if there's no longer a public health emergency, it no longer applies, and that's why they're using the view would hear the words mootness as if to say it's not relevant anymore because there isn't a reason for title 42 if there's no COVID emergency. Can you envision a way that the legal fight is reignited in some way? So that's a really good point, right? Because you see what this Republican states are saying is give me a break. We just want to control the border. Does it really make a difference what we call it, right? Is it make a difference is if it's COVID, it's an emergency. It's an emergency for other reasons for law enforcement for social welfare. We are 19 states. We don't know how to handle this crisis. So the one thought would be that the conservative majority on the Supreme Court would ultimately say, look, it's an emergency of some kind or the case just sort of starts over again, right? It doesn't, it's not based on title 42, but it's based on some other emergency reason that it gives the government the border control people. The right to essentially deny people the right to come into the country, even if they have a good faith claim for asylum, but the argument is right now we just can't have you here. Illegally, even if you do have a good faith claim for silent, we have to send you back. And so they may start all over with something that's not title 42, but serves the same purpose. We certainly appreciate the very clear explanation tonight thane. Have a great night. You too, Dimitri. Thank you. Fain Rosenbaum live on WTO, CBS News, legal analysts as we learn that the Supreme Court will at least we're not expecting it to hear arguments over title 42 as fame pointed out. They just took it off the docket, so we have to keep waiting to see what more that could mean, but he also indicated it's not a great sign that we will at some point have arguments over title 42 before the high bench. Stay with WTO pizza tonight. First of all, we'll tell you about a turn around for one of our local teams, the wizards, not so much for the caps, celebrations in college park. Maybe you can guess why that is. And in Arizona appeals court has tossed a challenge to the state's governor's race. It's all ahead. Everyone here knows

"1111, the Supreme Court is taking up a case that could increase the power, state lawmakers have over elections. The case stems from a North Carolina Supreme Court decision that struck down Republican efforts to redraw congressional districts for violating the state's constitution. Justices here in Washington will hear arguments on Wednesday, CBS News legal analyst thane Rosenbaum joined our stetson meddler to talk about the initial lawsuit that led here to the high court. The Republicans that had controlled the legislature in North Carolina redrew their congressional map in such a way that it's called partisan gerrymandering in such a way that they would essentially have won 11 of the 14 new congressional redrawn seats. That's a big win. So Democrats immediately filed lawsuits and the cases eventually went to the Supreme Court of North Carolina that said that to redraw maps in such a way that so clearly prejudices one of the political parties violated the North Carolina constitution. And so that they brought in a special master. They gave the Republicans another chance to redraw the math. They didn't change it very much. They redrew it again with a special master. And then now the most recent elections, there was a much more even split between Republicans and Democrats. The Republicans as essentially have now filed an appeal to the Supreme Court under what's known as the independent legislature doctrine. It's a constitutional clause called the elections clause in article one. And its purpose says, essentially, that when it comes to federal elections, state legislatures only state legislature, that's what the constitution seems to say have the authority to determine the rules of time, place and manner of elections. This issue has really come up in the post pandemic era. We saw this in the last presidential election. Why? Because there's been a lot of different changes in the election rules all over the country, but most of those rules were done by courts and state election officials, not by state legislators. And now what North Carolina is saying is, but that's unconstitutional. The only entity that can control elections, federal elections for Senate Congress or the president. The only entity can be the state legislatures and the Democrats are essentially saying arguing in front of the Supreme Court saying, well, that's ridiculous. There's what's the separation of powers? What's the oversight? Shouldn't courts also have an opportunity to see if these things are constitutional. And again, that CBS News legal analyst thane Rosenbaum

"Schedule your free in home estimate. 6 11 now on WTO another one of our major stories tonight conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has been ordered by a Connecticut jury to pay $965 million to people who suffered from his false claim the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was a hoax. It came in a lawsuit by the relatives of 8 of the victims, the verdict is the second big judgment against the InfoWars host for claiming that the massacre was staged back in August, the Texas jury ordered Jones to pay 50 million to the parents of another murdered child. Joining us live, CBS News legal analyst thane Rosenbaum, he thane, thanks for being back here. Thank you, Shawn and Hillary. So tell us what you think about this decision. It's an extraordinary amount of money and does he even have it? So Hillary, it's a statement, right? Because the parents sued for half a billion and the jury came back with essentially a billion. So that tells you they're saying, we're asking, the parents said, let me tell you how we came up with half a billion. It was 500 million people had positive hits on YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, other Instagram, to all of his conspiracy theories about newtown and as Danny hook shooting. So they're saying a dollar for every hit. And the jury came back with double the amount. Does he have the money? Look, someone testified a former employee said that he got somewhere between a 100 million and a $1 billion off of these hoax conspiracy theories about sandy hooks, meaning that he was able to sell his products including books and dietary supplements and survivalist gear on the strength of the lie. And so in theory, it's there. He's, however, saying, I'm filed for bankruptcy, and you'll never see a dime. So what happens now, especially as Jones will appeal the case? So Sean, first of all, one thing with his boast or his claim, there's not going to be anything there. Bankruptcy doesn't discharge this kind of a debt, right? It discharges business debts, but not if people sue you for emotional distress and defamation, that kind of thing doesn't get wiped clean and bankruptcy. It would survive it, and it would last for 20 years. So it will haunt him forever. Secondly, there's even more money here. The judge has the ability to issue punitive damages and she seems willing to do it. There's a statute in Connecticut that says unfair trade practices if meaning that if you're lying and selling products off the lie that you're entitled to punitive damages, the victorious party. So there may be more. And guess what? There's another case, another family's bringing a defamation case against him in Texas. So it's going to be keep piling up, and again, as I said, it's going to follow him. This clearly wipes him out. But you know, he was on the air today. He wasn't in courtroom. He was on the air, repeating the same lie, and in theory, he'll just keep saying it. Any final thought for us on this thing? Look, you know, it must have been excruciating for the families, right? What were the things Hillary? Well, parents were being haunted by his listeners saying that you lied, let's go dig up the grave of your child to prove that he's dead. A girl, a teenage girl was sent a rape kit based on the idea that her mother was killed. They're saying, we're going to punish you and rape you. Here's a rape kit. So this is what the jury heard. These were just despicable acts, not just the lie, right? It's what the lie and gendered. And this is a lesson. About the dangers of saying things, misinformation, here's a really good example of it. His listeners didn't just process the information. They acted on the information. And so I think it is clearly a vindication for the family, whether they collect on the debt. I don't know, but if they clearly got the truth out and their stories told about what was happening to them as a result of InfoWars and Alex Jones lie. Thanks so much for joining us tonight. Appreciate it. Thanks, Dane. At CBS News legal

"Homes of justices. CBS News legal analyst thane Rosenbaum gave his take on the protests and the Marshalls action. Everything about these protests outside the homes of the justices is highly unusual. First, the term is over, the protests are not intended to influence a decision. Second, the marshal's office escorts the justice's to and from places when necessary, but they never have to actually guard their homes around the clock. The Marshals are not the state police, they don't have the authority to make arrests under state law, and the protesters may be violating state law. Protests outside the homes of the justices began in May when a draft opinion suggesting the Supreme Court was about to overturn roe versus wade was leaked. Last week the court issued a ruling that overturned roe versus wade, the 1973 ruling legalizing abortion in the U.S.. In the wake of the roe versus wade ruling states are considering how to deal with abortion bans. Of the 26 states that already have or are set to ban or severely restrict abortion, judges and 5 have temporarily allowed abortions to continue while the lawsuits play out. In Wisconsin, abortion stopped after the state's law reverted to an 1849 ban. And in Florida, a ban sent to take effect on abortions after 15 weeks, was temporarily blocked by a judge who said it violated state privacy protections. In Arkansas, a trigger law is now in effect, banning all abortions even in cases of rape or incest, unless they are mandatory to save the life of the mother. CBS is Christina rafini reporting.

"Savings on fences, Dex and pavers, go to lawn fence dot com and schedule your free estimate today. Now 5 12 on WTO, we appreciate your company for the holiday getaway. You know the Supreme Court's term has just ended, of course, we're already thinking about perhaps how contentious the next term could be and abortion rights guarantee of 50 years was wiped away. New precedents were set regarding guns and religion, and starting in October, the court is set to examine a legal theory that would grant state legislatures a lot more power over federal elections. This comes as advocates for democracy are concerned 2020 election deniers could win powerful state positions and overturn future elections. Joining us live, CBS News legal analyst thane Rosenbaum, he thane, thanks for joining us. Any time for you, Hillary and dynamic. Well, thank you for that. So let's talk about this case out of North Carolina and the GOP legislature wanting to draw its lines a particular way and why so many people are worried about it. So Hillary, this sort of happened during this last election, but no one knew about it, which is that the pandemic caused as we all know, a need for absentee voting and mail in Bo voting and a change in voting regulations in order to make it easier to vote for this past election. And most of those changes were undertaken by state election officials and courts. Problem is that the constitution article one section four says federal elections must be created. The rules, time place and manner must be created by the state legislature. So people who are who object to this past election have been saying, this is one of their arguments. And now the Supreme Court is going to take it up. And you say, well, wait a minute. How did all these states change their elections? Yes, of course, for emergency purposes. But they did it without the state legislature making those changes. They were done by courts and by done and by election officials. And so what your point was, well, this concept of democracy is the constitution literally say that the only entity that can establish federal elections or state legislatures and that in North Carolina, they have now the state legislator has legislature has created a new congressional districts that very much favor Republicans. So the state Supreme Court stepped in, no, no, no, you can't do that. That's partisan gerrymandering. This is totally we have to have a constitutional obligation under their state constitution to evaluate and assess its fundamental fairness. And what's going up to the Supreme Court saying, well, but maybe the constitution literally says it's state legislatures and state legislatures only with no other oversight. In the seconds we have left here, are there legitimate concerns that this could have the effect of overturning the will of the people in a particular election coming up? Well, Dmitry, it depends what you call the will of the people, right? Republicans will say the state legislatures are voted by the people. They're going to say, that's the people. And that's what the founding father said. Now the question is, is that really a hard and fast rule, such a limitation? Because as I said before, North Carolina, the state Supreme Court and election officials took a look at this and said, this is unfair. And on democratic, which is your point, Dimitri, but the Republicans are saying, and this could happen all around the country, rules if you control the legislature in your state, you then control the rules for federal elections, period.

"1 o'clock. Supreme Court overturns roe V wade. They have just eliminated the constitutional right for an abortion. Support for today's decision. We've been waiting for this day for a long time. President Biden calls it. It's a sad day for the court and for the country. This is the CBS world news roundup late edition. I'm Jennifer Kuiper in Chicago. And I'm Linda kenyon in Washington, where the U.S. Supreme Court has issued a landmark ruling that strikes down another landmark ruling. The United States Supreme Court overturned roe V wade today. And said that there is no constitutional right under the federal constitution for a woman to have an abortion. Loyola law professor Laurie Levinson says the case involved Mississippi's soul abortion provider Jackson women's health organization, which sued the state after lawmakers passed a restrictive ban on abortions. CBS legal analyst thane Rosenbaum says, although the decision was expected, many were disheartened. The Supreme Court decision is a major disappointment to pro abortion activists, but it is not fatal to the right to have an abortion. That's because it sends the matter back to each state to decide. Many states have already moved in that direction. I'm Jim crissa, 13 states have laws that ban abortion. Now that roe has been overturned. Another half dozen have near total bans or prohibitions. Professor Levinson on what this means to women. The people who will bear the brunt of this decision are poor women. I'm Linda kenyon. Here's Jennifer Kuiper with reaction.
