2019 term per curiam opinions of the Supreme Court of the United States

[1] Because per curiam decisions are issued from the Court as an institution, these opinions all lack the attribution of authorship or joining votes to specific justices.

All justices on the Court at the time the decision was handed down are assumed to have participated and concurred unless otherwise noted.

Chief Justice: John Roberts Associate Justices: Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsburg (died September 18, 2020), Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh 589 U.S. ___ Decided November 25, 2019.

Ginsburg filed a dissent, joined by Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan.

Alito filed a dissent, joined by Gorsuch, and by Thomas in part.

The Court ruled that the defendant's claims of ineffective assistance of counsel were inappropriately dismissed, as the state court failed to address the prejudice prong of the Strickland test.
