Supreme Court to hear more debate on capital punishment case
The Supreme Court ordered more arguments next term in a North Carolina death penalty case, delaying a ruling. The move could keep 283 death row inmates in 25 states awaiting a decision for up to a year. Justices may be divided or hampered by Justice Douglas's illness. The court also removed Richard Nixon’s name from its roll and agreed to review Medicaid payment denial.
