Justice Alito recuses from major climate case
Original: Justice Alito recuses from major climate-change case to be heard next week
US Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has recused himself from a major climate-change case scheduled to be argued next week. The move means the case will be heard by the remaining eight justices, and Alito has not given a public reason for stepping aside. The recusal is drawing attention because the case is one of the most significant environmental matters on the court's docket.
Why now: The recusal could affect the outcome of a high-stakes climate ruling expected to have broad consequences.
