So Far This Year

I have this strange tendency to documents things as they happen every year. I've been doing it for years with music (Best of 200? at the end of every year), and I've been tempted to do it with film before, though the money/time that would require made me change my mind. I'm also going to start doing it with Court cases though, and I've already written a list of what I think will be the 20 best cases for the 2007-2008 term. Here's the list:

Argued:
Boumediene v. Bush
Cuellar v. United States
Davis v. Federal Election Commission
District of Colombia v. Heller
Giles v. California
Indiana v. Edwards
Kennedy v. Louisiana
Munaf v. Geren
Plains Commerce Bank v. Long Family Land & Cattle
United States v. Ressam
United States v. Rodriquez
United States v. Williams
Washington State Grange v. Washington State Republican Party

Decided:
Baze v. Rees (ScotusBlog, Wiki, Opinion)
Begay v. United States
Crawford v. Marion County Election Board
Kimbrough v. United States
Medellin v. Texas
New York State Board of Elections v. Lopez Torres
Watson v. United States

As you can see, most of these cases have yet to come down. It's already mid May-they have a lot of work to do. It wouldn't surprise me if a ton came down all of a sudden soon. As they do, I'll of course post about them, and as for the ones I've missed already, I'll maybe take care of that this summer. Good stuff!
