In legal news, a Colorado appeals court dismissed 83 complaints against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. One of the ethics complaints alleged Kavanaugh lied under oath to the Senate during nomination proceedings. The judicial panel said that they do not have the authority to take action on the complaints—which relate to events before his confirmation as a Supreme Court justice—because his seat on the Supreme Court bench excludes him from the judiciary’s misconduct rules.
