U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch didn’t have much time to get up to speed on his new job.
Only a week after being sworn in, Gorsuch took the bench for the first time Monday, filling the space next to Justice Sonia Sotomayor to hear arguments in three cases, with another four scheduled to follow later in the week. They include a clash Tuesday over the power of the Securities and Exchange Commission to recoup illegal profits and arguments Wednesday in a closely watched church-state dispute.
