Republic of Hungary v. Simon

Hello listeners! In this episode, Pari and I discuss Republic of Hungary v. Simon, a SCOTUS case that concerns Hungarian Holocaust survivors suing the Republic of Hungary in pursuit of compensation for seized property. Pari was actually lucky enough to be present in the chamber during oral arguments for this case! Listen for her observations about the justices' statures, behaviors and body languages during arguments, and more. As always, we've linked some information for you below and we'll see you in two weeks! https://www.scotusblog.com/2020/12/case-preview-foreign-sovereign-immunity-comity-and-the-holocaust/ https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-867/309743/20240514121241293_Republic%20of%20Hungary%20v.%20Simon%20-%20Brief%20for%20Respondents%20FILE.pdf https://www.oyez.org/cases/2024/23-867 https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-867/323352/20240826122931272_23-867%20Petitioners%20Opening%20Brief.pdf https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-867/324002/20240903185425980_23-867tsacUnitedStates.pdf https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-867/309743/20240514121241293_Republic%20of%20Hungary%20v.%20Simon%20-%20Brief%20for%20Respondents%20FILE.pdf https://tlblog.org/hungary-v-simon-offers-supreme-court-stark-choice/
