The Supreme Court has signaled it will release at least one opinion Friday, a hastily scheduled announcement that comes as TikTok’s divest-or-ban deadline approaches Sunday.  The justices indicate in advance when they will hand down opinions, but Thursday’s update was highly unusual. It came with short notice and indicated the justices won’t read their opinions aloud in the courtroom, as is typical.  “The Court may announce opinions on the homepage beginning at 10 a.m. The Court will not take the Bench,” the update to the court’s homepage read.  Normally, the court signals its opinion announcements a few days in advance. It did so for Friday with just roughly 18 hours' notice.  Last term, the court only gave similarly short notice once, when it raced to hand down its decision keeping President-elect Trump on Colorado’s ballot after he was disqualified under the 14th Amendment’s insurrection ban.  The Supreme Court last Friday heard oral arguments in TikTok’s fight to save the platform from a new federal law requiring it to divest from its Chinese-based parent company, ByteDance, by Sunday or face a nationwide ban.  The video-sharing platform, which boasts more than 170 million U.S. users, has asserted the law violates the First Amendment and that it effectively will “go dark” if the ban takes effect.  The justices are hearing the case on a highly expedited schedule, leading to expectations that the court may rule before Sunday’s deadline passes.   At oral arguments, a majority appeared inclined to uphold the ban, siding with the government’s national security interest.
