You beat me to it! Carpenter is a very interesting case that I was following last term. If you're unfamiliar, the case is about the disputed abolishment of certain reservations in Oklahoma. If the court rules that the reservations were never actually abolished, among other things, a large portion of Oklahoma would actually be on reservation lands.

This is the Roberts court; regardless of who wins, the ruling will be, IMHO, an extremely narrow one. Don't expect any land titles to change hands.

  Definitely agree. Roberts court aside, I remember during oral argument some justices being very uncomfortable with the ramifications of a strong ruling on either side.
