The former dean of Harvard Law School emerges as more likely than her liberal colleagues to make common cause with conservatives.

Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor torched the Supreme Court for siding with Trump on birthright citizenship—and putting every civil right under attack.

The Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration to deport a group of migrants with criminal records held at a U.S. base in Djibouti; the administration says they'll be sent to South Sudan.

The last day of the Supreme Court term was a tough one for the court’s liberal bloc, particularly Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who announced her dissent from the bench in two cases.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor read lengthy dissents attacking the majority rulings on universal injunctions and religious rights in public schools.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor condemned the federal sentencing commission’s failure to resolve a circuit split and scolded Tennessee courts for their “untenable” approach to manslaughter jury instructions.

Labor unions, advocacy groups and local governments sued the president and 21 federal agencies over the RIFs, contending that the president exceeded his authority in mandating the federal layoffs. They argued that the president avoided the congressional approval needed to restructure federal agencies.

"If this Court wishes to permit the Government to flout the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Due Process Clause, it cannot avoid accountability for that lawlessness."
