Original: Alito’s Recusal From Climate Case: Too Little, Too Late?
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has recused himself from a pending climate-related case, prompting debate over whether the move came too late to restore confidence. Commentators question why the recusal was not made earlier and what it signals about the Court's handling of ethics concerns, particularly given prior scrutiny of Alito's ties to parties with interests before the Court. The decision leaves open questions about the case's outcome and the justices' disclosure standards.
