Supreme Court

Supreme Courts are the highest judicial bodies in various countries, responsible for interpreting laws and ensuring their constitutionality. They serve as the final arbiters in legal disputes, shaping legal landscapes and impacting citizens' lives. Recently, several Supreme Courts have been in the news for significant rulings. Panama's Supreme Court declared a Chinese company's control of canal ports unconstitutional, potentially impacting Hong Kong-based CK Hutchison. South Korea's Supreme Court found the government liable in the death of a Cambodian migrant worker, prompting promises of improved protections for foreign workers. In the United States, the Supreme Court is considering President Trump's tariffs, with a decision pending after unusually rapid arguments. These cases highlight the crucial role Supreme Courts play in upholding the rule of law, protecting rights, and resolving complex legal and political issues on a global scale. The US Supreme Court also appears to be carving out an exception in the case of the Federal Reserve.
