With the Supreme Court out for the weekend, its next scheduled action is an order list Monday, Oct. 19, at 9:30 a.m. ET, and its November arguments open Nov. 2, with the Catholic parish case St. Mary Catholic Parish v. Roy on Nov. 3, according to SCOTUSblog's court calendar. SCOTUSblog counts 33 cases granted and six argued so far this term, with no decisions yet. Justice Samuel Alito, 76, who began his 22nd term this month, has not hinted at retirement, though he told CBS News that at his age stepping away is something he must consider each year, the Washington Examiner reported.
