  New to the Emanuel® Law Outlines: Constitutional Law, Thirty-Ninth Edition:

                Coverage of key 2020-2021 Supreme Court developments, including:

  • Cedar Point Nursery v. Hassid, where the Court held that if government requires a landowner to submit to a physical occupation, that occupation will be compensable under the Takings Clause, even if the occupation is a temporary and/or intermittent one.
  • Mahanoy Area School District v. B.L., where the Court held that when a public-high-school student expresses herself off-campus (and not as part of a school-sponsored activity), the school’s First Amendment authority to regulate that expression will usually be weaker than where the speech occurs on-campus.
  • Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Bonta, where the Court held that when government requires a group to disclose who its members are, the disclosure scheme will be subjected to “exacting scrutiny” under the First Amendment, so that government will have to prove that the disclosure requirement was “narrowly tailored” to the achievement of an important governmental interest.
  • Fulton v. City of Philadelphia and Tandon v. Newsom, two free-exercise-of-religion cases in which the Court held that that if government grants exemptions from a law to those pursuing some secular activity, government’s refusal to grant a similar exemption to one pursuing a comparable religious activity is likely to prevent the law from being a “generally applicable” one, in which case the refusal will be strictly scrutinized and probably struck down.
