Brett Kavanaugh Pushes Back Against Criticism Of 1 Controversial Supreme Court Practice
HuffPost
The conservative justice said he "definitely" pays attention to the public's view of the court.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on Thursday pushed back against criticism over the high court’s limited explanation for decisions made on an emergency basis, many of which have served President Donald Trump’s agenda of overhauling the federal government.
In an appearance in Kansas City, Missouri, before the judicial conference of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit, reported by multiple news outlets, Kavanaugh seemed to distance himself from comments made by his liberal colleague Elena Kagan last week when she said the court should exercise more caution when deciding cases on emergency appeal.
“Courts are supposed to explain things,” Kagan said. “I think as we have done more and more on this emergency docket, there becomes a real responsibility that I think we didn’t recognize when we first started down this road, to explain things better.”
But Kavanaugh offered a differing view.
“There can be a risk, in writing the opinion, of a lock-in effect, of making a snap judgment and putting it in writing, in a written opinion that’s not going to reflect the final view,” he said.
“It’s a terrible tragedy that they’ve suffered here, and the president’s tweets — his Truth Social post — is indefensible by anybody," said David Urban.
