45 Preview U.S. Sup. Ct. Cas. 1 (2017-2018)

handle is hein.journals/prvw45 and id is 1 raw text is: Previewing the Court's Entire October Calendar of Cases, including.. Gill v Whitforf The Wiscon sin legislature redrew its state Assembly districts in the wake of the 2010 Census. The legislature took into account traditional redistricting criteria- it also considered politics. The resulting Assembly map was an extreme partisan gertyrander that resulted in significant overrepresentation for the maiorit' party (as compared with the statewide vote) and effeclively locked in majorily-part, control of the Assembly, Voters from 11 Assembly districts soed, arguing that the map violated the First and Fourteenlh Amendments Sessions v Dimaya Aliens convicted of an aggravated felony can be removed from the country in deportation proceedings. Federal law allows such deportations if aliens have engaged in a felony that involves a substantial risk that physical force against the person or property of another may be used in the course of committing the offense. The problem is in determining when an offense entails such significant risk. Take the crime of burglar. Some burglaries involve physical force, but many burglaries involve no physical fbrce or are committed when the owners are not present. The key question for the Court is whether this law is unconstitutionally vague. &&4i~ECQ &St2CE I Public Educatkrn
