In other news, a significant Supreme Court ruling on bankruptcy is expected to have profound implications on Catholic abuse lawsuits.

Additionally, the Supreme Court recently made headlines with its decision against Google, finding it guilty of anti-competitive practices in its handling of its search engine operations. This landmark antitrust case draws parallels to the early 20th-century monopoly regulation, notably reminding legal historians and economists of the 1911 Standard Oil case. The decision signifies a renewed scrutiny on large technology firms, echoing the United States' historical stance against monopolistic enterprises. This could set a precedent that might reshape the balance between large tech companies and regulatory frameworks set to ensure competitive fairness in the digital age.
