Abner Greene was quoted in Law 360 about how Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch’s vote may be significant in deciding the fate of the Trinity Lutheran Church of Columbia v. Comer case.
Abner Greene, a professor at Fordham School of Law, says it’s a case the court has been “sitting on for a while,” possibly waiting for a ninth justice.
“I think people assume that the left of the court is going to vote for the state and that the right of the court is going to vote for the church, and that Gorsuch is going to be the deciding vote and people think he’ll probably side with the conservatives,” Greene said. “But everyone is guessing here.”
