Supreme Court Hears Arguments in Guerrero v. Johnson

The U.S. Supreme Court hears oral arguments in Guerrero v. Johnson at 10 a.m. ET on Nov. 4.

The case concerns a Texas death-row prisoner’s claim of intellectual disability and whether changes in medical standards allow him to challenge his death sentence through another federal appeal.

The justices will consider the limits of federal habeas corpus review and the constitutional protections available in death penalty cases.
