Podcasts about Minnesota Supreme Court

On todays Show we talk about  various topics, including the return of Dr. Green, who expressed gratitude for his recovery and cognitive function. They discussed the Memorial Day Run for the Red, White, and Blue at the Chanel Aviation Museum, and the tradition of playing Taps. The group debated the Minnesota Supreme Court's decision allowing women to go topless, criticizing the hypocrisy of the left. They also discussed the acquisition of a new Air Force One, the potential use of nuclear power plants, and the impact of rolling blackouts in Bucha, speculating on AI involvement. Additionally, they mentioned the Southern Poverty Law Center's designation of family game nights as a hate group and the recent sinking of a North Korean ship. The conversation revolves around the analysis of a movie directed by Samuel Ismail, who previously worked with the Obamas. The speakers criticize the movie's predictable stunts and music, predicting its failure. They then discuss a controversial incident where Trump confronted the South African President at the White House, which they argue was not an ambush but a strategic move by Trump to expose the President's claims about racial atrocities. The discussion also touches on the upcoming launch of Starship 9, a spacecraft with double the power of the Saturn V rocket, designed to take humans to Mars. The speakers conclude with a light-hearted exchange about personal matters and upcoming plans. Don't miss it!

One of the survivors and his family sued the charter school Harvest Best Academy for hiring Hjermstad.

Justice Alan Page and his daughter Kamie joined us for a delightful conversation about their latest children's book, "Baking Up Love." This heartwarming story celebrates the special bond between a young girl and her grandfather as they bake cupcakes together.  Justice Alan Page has certainly accomplished a lot in his life. He is a member of the NFL Hall Of Fame, a former Justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. But he shared that the true joys come from the time he spends with his grandchildren. "There is nothing else like it in the world," he said, describing the "exponentially more fun, more warm, more heartwarming" experience of being a grandparent.  Kamie chimed in, explaining how her dad engages with his grandkids in all sorts of activities, from book clubs to board games. This intergenerational connection is at the core of "Baking Up Love" and the family's other children's books, which they create as a fundraiser for the Page Educational Foundation. Established by Justice Alan and his wife Diane in 1988, the foundation provides scholarships and mentorship to students of color in Minnesota. Kamie shared how the program's "Page scholars" don't just receive funding, but also give back by volunteering with younger students in their communities. It's a beautiful cycle of paying it forward. Throughout the conversation, the Pages emphasized the importance of reading, creativity, and quality time with loved ones - whether they're grandparents, parents, or even "grand friends" in the community. Their passion for empowering youth and celebrating family shines through in both their philanthropic work and their delightful children's books. If you're looking to inspire the young readers in your life, be sure to check out "Baking Up Love" and the other titles from Justice Alan Page and Kamie Page. It's a tasty treat for the whole family!

The Minnesota House has relaunched with a power-sharing deal. At the same time as Minnesota House leaders were unveiling that deal to get the chamber running again, Minnesota Supreme Court justices were hearing arguments in a lawsuit over problems that arose during the three-plus week standoff.Those stories and more in today's evening update. Hosted by Emily Reese. Music by Gary Meister.

Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party Chair Ken Martin is viewed as one of the top contenders to lead the national Democratic Party and will face a key test tomorrow. Republicans have been unable to conduct business in the Minnesota House during a DFL boycott of the legislative session. And yesterday, they filed a lawsuit with the Minnesota Supreme Court seeking to move a stalled session forward. The annual City of Lakes Loppet Winter Festival takes place this weekend at Theodore Wirth Park in Minneapolis.  Organizers make their own snow for the event.This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Phil Picardi.

On Monday afternoon the Minnesota House will be back in order. But it's more of a restart than a continuation of session business.That's because the Minnesota Supreme Court decided last week that Republicans didn't have enough members present to do anything — with Democrats still staging their boycott. While talks have resumed between party leaders, action on state policies and the budget is on pause for now.MPR News correspondent Peter Cox joined the program live from the capitol for a breakdown of what's next for the session.

Representative Lisa Demuth joins Chad to talk about the Minnesota Supreme Court ruling Friday on the definition of quorum and how the House GOP will move ahead with DFL members of the House still not reporting to the Capitol.

The Minnesota Supreme Court has weighed in on the standoff in the state House. Justices say 68 members are needed to conduct business — one more than Republicans have on their own. But the court declined to order a specific action beyond that, saying they assume the parties can work it out on their own with the quorum matter clarified.And a Republican candidate who narrowly lost a race for the Minnesota House won't ask the Supreme Court to step in.Those stories and more in today's evening update from MPR News. Hosted by Emily Reese. Music by Gary Meister.

The Minnesota Supreme Court Thursday hears arguments on whether Republicans are conducting lawful proceedings in the state House. The anti-abortion group Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life held its annual "March for Life" at the State Capitol yesterday.  The group has denounced the rise in abortions in the state.And the Hennepin County Attorney's Office says it will not file charges against three Minneapolis police officers who fatally shot a man last June. County Attorney Mary Moriarty announced the decision in the shooting of 39-year-old Michael Warren Ristow, who was shot police near the intersection of 33rd Street and Hiawatha Avenue.This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Phil Picardi.

The Minnesota Supreme Court will hear arguments Thursday over a power struggle in the state House of Representatives. Democratic lawmakers are boycotting the chamber to keep attendance below 68 members, which is the amount of members that has historically been needed for the chamber to start its official work. DFL Secretary of State Steve Simon has said this year is no different. House Republicans disagree and have gone ahead with business like electing a speaker. So, Simon and DFL lawmakers asked the court to step in with two different cases that could decide who has power in the house. MPR News senior politics reporter Dana Ferguson joined Minnesota Now with an update on the latest.

The Legislature opened its session on Jan. 14. But the House hasn't been able to operate at full capacity.  Democrats are boycotting and Republicans have declined to cut a deal to share power or commit to leaving a DFL win in a contested House election intact.Now the Minnesota Supreme Court is involved. Will a ruling by justices settle things or could the standoff linger deeper into the session? MPR News politics editor Brian Bakst talked to the two Minnesota lawmakers with a role in the power struggle. Later, he spoke with two legal scholars about how the constitutional tug-of-war is playing out. 

KSTP-TV political reporter Tom Hauser joins with a preview of what's happening today with arguments before the Minnesota Supreme Court and the continuing mess with the House in St. Paul.

A trial that had been underway for two Minnesota men charged in the January 6 attack did not resume as scheduled this morning after President Donald Trump granted clemency to them and nearly 1,600 other defendants. And House Republicans have filed a response to lawsuits before the Minnesota Supreme Court over a power struggle in the Legislature. Those stories and more in today's evening update from MPR News.

The Minnesota Supreme Court says it will hear arguments on Thursday of next week, Jan. 23, in a dispute over who is running the Minnesota House. That means a standoff over House operations could remain in flux for awhile. And the court on Wednesday heard arguments in a special election case. Republicans want to delay the election, which earlier this month was scheduled for Jan. 28. This is a MPR News morning update, hosted by Phil Picardi.

Tom and Andy discuss the President's remark and the reactions to it with less than a week before the election. Today's topics also include a Minnesota Supreme Court ruling that went against the actions of election officials in Hennepin County.

The Minnesota Supreme Court has sided with a conservative voters group and the state Republican Party in a case tied to the makeup of a Hennepin County board that will review absentee ballots. In other news, there's a winter weather advisory. Several inches of slushy snow are possible on Halloween day Thursday, near Hinckley and Moose Lake and northeast toward Two Harbors.This is the afternoon MPR News update, hosted by Emily Reese. Theme music by Gary Meister.

In a win for Republicans, Hennepin County has been ordered by the Minnesota Supreme Court to reset a panel that oversees absentee ballots. We hear from the conservative group who brought on the challenge and from Hennepin county election officials. You've heard of a labor union, but what about a tenant's union?

And the Funny Asian Women Kollective is celebrating 10 years of using comedy to spotlight the experiences of Asian women.

With just days to go until Election Day and more than 263,000 absentee ballots received by Hennepin County, the Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that the county must form a new election panel overseeing absentee ballots by Friday, Nov. 1. The ruling comes after the Minnesota Republican Party and Minnesota Voter's Alliance argued Hennepin County had not taken the steps to fully exhaust its list of Republican election judges in the county before drawing from outside of the list. The court stopped short of saying that political representation on the panel was unequal, however.For more, MPR News host Cathy Wurzer talks with Andy Cilek, the executive director of the Minnesota Voters Alliance, one of the groups that brought the suit, and Hennepin County auditor Dan Rogan.

The Minnesota Supreme Court ordered a new trial for a man involved in a shooting death during a fight. Chad shares the details of the case and what he thinks is acceptable according to the law.

The Minnesota Supreme Court is currently deliberating a case that could potentially redefine the boundaries of indecent exposure, at least in the state. At the center of the debate is Eloisa Rubi Plancarte, who was convicted after walking through a gas station parking lot with her breasts uncovered. While the case has sparked discussions on gender equality, the state's attorney introduced an even more perplexing argument. He suggested that under the current law, even exposing an elbow could theoretically violate Minnesota's indecent exposure statute. When Associate Justice Karl Procaccini asked if the statute could apply to any body part, Jim Haase, the attorney representing the state, responded, “I would say it's conceivable.”Read the original article at www(dot)planetnude(dot)co This is a public episode.

The Minnesota Supreme Court is considering a challenge to a deal between the Minneapolis school district and teachers' union. The agreement in question ended a Minneapolis teachers' strike two and a half years ago and included job protections for teachers of color.Before the agreement, Minneapolis Public Schools would have to lay off teachers in order of seniority, so the last ones hired would be the first let go. Now the district can exempt teachers from underrepresented groups from that rule. But a Minneapolis resident sued over this provision, saying it's unconstitutional. What the court is weighing is whether a taxpayer, who helps fund the district, has legal standing to sue over something like a union contract. Sahan Journal education reporter Becky Dernbach has been following this and she joins MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to break it down.

Judicial selection in the states is not uniform, but most states have some form of judicial elections. Some are contested elections--whether partisan or nonpartisan--and some involve uncontested retention elections. During an election, judicial candidates must abide by ethical rules that explicitly restrict their ability to speak freely.What are the implications, if any, for restrictions on judicial speech arising from different systems of selecting and retaining judges? How do judicial campaign experiences inform free speech perspectives? Join us for a conversation about how judicial elections intersect with free speech rights.Featuring:Hon.

In the past few weeks, there have been several notable developments in lawsuits seeking to disqualify Donald Trump from the 2024 election under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The Minnesota Supreme Court dismissed a case against Trump but invited the petitioners to refile once Trump won the GOP nomination. A court in Michigan rejected a challenge to Trump's eligibility on the grounds that Congress, not the courts, should ultimately decide. And, most recently, a Colorado trial court held that, although Trump did engage in insurrection before and during Jan. 6, Section 3 does not apply to presidents.As these and other cases make their way through the courts, and with the potential that the Supreme Court will at some point weight in, we're bringing you another portion of a conference held last month at the University of Minnesota Law School (for a previous excerpt, see the November 1 edition of the Lawfare Podcast). This panel, focusing on the interplay between the Section 3 challenges and election law, was moderated by University of Minnesota Law School Professor Nick Bednar, and featured Professor Ned Foley of the Ohio State College of Law, Professor Derek Muller of Notre Dame Law School, and Professor Andrea Katz of Washington University School of Law.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

In the wake of Donald Trump's role in the attempt to overturn the 2020 election and the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, lawsuits in states around the country are seeking to disqualify him from the 2024 election. Challengers to his eligibility invoke Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which provides in relevant part that "No person shall . . . hold any office . . . under the United States . . . who, having previously taken an oath . . . as an officer of the United States . . . to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."As of now, there are nearly two dozen states in which litigation is ongoing to bar Trump from the ballot, and that number is only expected to grow. Earlier this week, a Colorado district began a week-long bench trial and, this Thursday, the Minnesota Supreme Court will hear oral argument. And if a state does disqualify Trump, the United States Supreme Court will no doubt immediately hear the case.On Monday October 30, the University of Minnesota Law School held a conference with leading law and political science scholars on "Section 3, Insurrection, and the 2024 Election: Does the Fourteenth Amendment Bar Donald Trump from the Presidency?" Today's Lawfare Podcast is a recording of one of the conference panels, which focused on the political implications of the Section 3 cases.The moderator was Larry Jacobs of the Hubert H. Humphrey School of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota, and the panelists were Julia Azari, a Professor of Political Science at Marquette University; Ilya Somin, a Professor of Law at George Mason University's Antonin Scalia Law School; and Eric Segall, a Professor of Law at the Georgia State College of Law.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
