Neil Gorsuch: “background circumstances”

I participated in 2,700 opinions over 10 and a half years. And if you want cases where I've ruled for the little guy as well as the big guy, there are plenty of them, Senator.

The Supreme Court of the United States has held in Roe vs. Wade that a fetus is not a person. That’s the law of the land. I accept the law of the land.

when confronted with coercive prosecutorial tactics designed to induce defendants to take plea deals, the Court has often condoned those practices or let them pass in silence.

Lower courts would be wise to take heed.
