On the Docket: Experience the Supreme Court like Never Before

Watch Chief Justice Roberts announce the Opinion for the Supreme Court's ruling in Trump v. United States (2024) fundamentally altered presidential power by establishing that Presidents have absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for ""official acts"" performed within their core constitutional authority. The Court created a tiered system: absolute immunity for core duties, presumptive immunity for other official acts, and no immunity for unofficial (private) acts. This decision ensures Presidents can take "bold and unhesitating" action without fear of future prosecution, but critics argue it places the Executive above the law. The audio is genuine, recorded in the US Supreme Court. The animation was made with AI.

Although the Court promptly releases audio of oral arguments, it bans video and does not post recordings of opinion announcements, limiting access to those present in the courtroom. These recordings are instead withheld for months before release to the National Archives. On the Docket fills this gap by converting the justices' audio into engaging videos. Using AI-generated visuals, we present representations of the justices delivering their opinions, making these pivotal moments more accessible to the public.
