Trump’s Death Penalty Order Is a Message to the Supreme Court - Bloomberg

Reliance on precedent provides fair notice of the law and predictability, allowing government officials and public members to conduct their affairs according to the law. Cases should be overturned only where one or more of the following conditions is met: (1) a new understanding of facts and law; (2) the prior ruling has been unworkable in practice; (3) the law has developed in ways inconsistent with the prior ruling; or (4) society has not come to rely on the precedent in the conduct of its affairs. The court of Chief Justice John Roberts has already overturned precedent in cases involving abortion, gun rights and affirmative action, despite failing to satisfy these four criteria. Trump is now pushing for the justices to do the same on the death penalty, which risks further eroding public trust in the Supreme Court’s impartiality.
