Justice Alito Recuses Himself from Supreme Court Climate Case
Original: Justice Alito surprisingly recuses from climate change case ahead of new term
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has recused himself from a climate change case scheduled ahead of the new court term, an unexpected move that could affect the outcome if the remaining eight justices split. Recusals by sitting justices are rare and usually tied to potential conflicts of interest. The court has not explained the decision, and observers are watching closely as the case moves forward without him.
Why now: A rare Supreme Court recusal on a high-stakes climate case raises questions about conflicts and the case's outcome
