Judges and lawmakers are clashing in Missouri, and it all has to do with a unanimous ruling delivered last week by the state Supreme Court. On this episode of the Legal Roundtable, our panel of legal experts unpacks the drama over the court’s decision to strike down a law that allowed the secretary of state to rewrite ballot summaries. In response, the law’s sponsor called the justices “little kings and queens in their black robes.” In addition to that case, our panel also analyzes major developments in the state’s ban on trangender healthcare, a trial over abortion restrictions, a developer suing over lost profits, and more.
