The Supreme Court is going to hear a bunch of big time cases.

 

https://gma.yahoo.com/supreme-court-2015-term-inside-key-cases-big-094038165--abc-news-topstories.html

 

Fisher V U of Texas- Affirmative Action

 

Friedrichs v California Teachers Association- compulsory dues for public unions

 

Evenwel v Abbott- Use of population vs voting population to draw legislative districts

 

Plus probably a couple of abortion cases and maybe a death penalty case.

 

The biggest one, IMO, is the legislative district case.  If they rule in favor of the challenger, it would change the method used to calculate how districts are made.  Instead of total population, it would make states use VOTING population.
