SCOTUS doesn’t announce in advance which opinions will be announced on which days. Here’s some helpful info:
Question: What opinions will the court issue on a given day?
Answer: Unlike some other courts, the Supreme Court doesn’t announce in advance which cases will be decided on a particular day. So normally, we don’t know which opinions we will get. The only time we have a good sense is the very last day, when the court issues its final rulings.
Question: How does the court decide the order in which opinions will be released on a given day?
Answer: The opinions are posted by author in order of reverse seniority. This means that if Justice Amy Coney Barrett has any opinions, hers are released first, followed by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, Justice Neil Gorsuch, and so on through the chief justice, who is always the most senior justice. However, there can be exceptions to this general reverse-seniority rule, generally when the justices are announcing decisions in two or more cases involving similar issues and it makes more sense to announce one first, even if it means disrupting the normal order for announcements.
