The United States Supreme Court opened its new term on Monday, marked by Chief Justice John Roberts rejecting over 800 pending appeals, including a high-profile case from Ghislaine Maxwell challenging her conviction for luring teenage girls to be sexually abused by her late partner, Jeffrey Epstein.

### Focus on Trump’s Presidential Power

Over the next ten months, a primary focus for the justices will be assessing former President Donald Trump’s expansive claims of presidential power.

### Key Cases in the New Term

**LGBTQ Rights: Therapy Bans**
One of the first cases the Court will hear concerns bans on therapy aimed at changing sexual orientation or gender identity. Nearly half of the US states have enacted such bans, making this a pivotal case for LGBTQ rights nationwide.

**Tariff Case**
Another significant case involves Trump’s imposition of tariffs on imports. Two lower courts have ruled that Trump lacked the statutory authority to impose these tariffs. The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear this case on November 5.

**Trump’s Authority Over Independent Agencies**
In December, the Court will consider arguments on Trump’s authority to remove members of independent agencies at will. This case has the potential to overturn or significantly narrow a 90-year-old precedent.

### Other High-Profile Cases

**Birthright Citizenship Executive Order**
The Court will also review a Trump administration executive order that denies birthright citizenship to children born in the United States to parents who are in the country illegally or temporarily. The administration has appealed lower court rulings that deemed the order unconstitutional. This case could be heard late this winter or early spring.

**Federal Reserve Board Appointment**
An expedited review is set for Trump’s attempt to remove Lisa Cook from her position as a governor on the Federal Reserve Board, adding another high-stakes constitutional question to the docket.

### Latest Legal Battle: National Guard Deployment

A recent legal dispute involves Trump’s efforts to seize control of state National Guard troops and deploy them in cities where he claims there is rampant crime, despite opposition from local and state officials. A federal court in Oregon issued an order barring Trump’s troop deployment to Portland. An appeals court is expected to review this decision in the coming days.

As the Supreme Court tackles these critical issues, the coming months promise to shape the future boundaries of presidential power and significant areas of American law.
