Justice Alito recuses himself from major climate case
Original: Samuel Alito steps aside in a major climate case amid scrutiny over oil stock holdings
US Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has recused himself from a major climate case amid scrutiny over his holdings of oil company stock. The decision removes him from a closely watched case on climate regulation and reignites debate over the justices' financial disclosures and ethical standards at the nation's highest court.
Why now: Recusal of a Supreme Court justice from a landmark climate case raises fresh questions about judicial ethics and the case's outcome.
