Jury Selection on Hold in Minneapolis
Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was in court on Monday. He is facing charges in the death of George Floyd.

that represented Mr. Uzuegbu-
nam, appealed to the Supreme
Court.
Writing for the court, Jus-
tice Clarence Thomas said
nominal damages historically
had been available in English
and American law even when
plaintiffs already had obtained
the substantive results they
sought.
“By permitting plaintiffs to
pursue
nominal
damages
whenever they suffered a per-
sonal legal injury, the common
law avoided the oddity of priv-
ileging small-dollar economic
rights over important, but not
easily quantifiable, nonpecuni-
ary rights,” Justice Thomas
wrote.
Chief Justice John Roberts
alone dissented, itself a rare
event. He argued that allowing
a judgment after the chal-
lenged policy had been with-
drawn amounted to the court
providing an advisory opinion
on a dispute that no longer ex-
isted. Such advisory opinions,
rather than decisions on live
controversies,
exceed
the
court’s authority, he wrote.
“Until now, we have said
that federal courts can review
the legality of policies and ac-
tions only as a necessary inci-
dent to resolving real dis-
putes,” Chief Justice Roberts
wrote. “Going forward, the Ju-
diciary will be required to per-
form this function whenever a
plaintiff asks for a dollar.”
WASHINGTON—The
Su-
preme Court expanded the lia-
bility that public institutions
face for infringing free-speech
rights, ruling on Monday that
they could still lose judgments
even if they previously re-
pealed the challenged policies.
The decision in the case, by
a 8-1 vote, allows plaintiffs to
obtain a formal judgment in
their favor and nominal dam-
ages for past violation of
rights whose monetary value
is hard to quantify. Although
nominal damages typically are
a symbolic $1, such judgments
can also put the loser on the
hook for the plaintiff’s attor-
neys’ fees.
Monday’s case came from
Lawrenceville, Ga., where au-
thorities at Georgia Gwinnett
College repeatedly frustrated
student Chike Uzuegbunam’s
efforts to proselytize his
Christian faith.
After Mr. Uzuegbunam sued
the college, however, adminis-
trators dropped the restric-
tions.
A federal district judge dis-
missed the suit as moot, since
the policy the plaintiff wanted
invalidated
had
been
re-
scinded.
A federal circuit court in
Atlanta affirmed that decision,
and lawyers with Alliance De-
fending Freedom, an advocacy
group for religious interests
