The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to review Barrett v. United States, No. 24-5774, in the 2025-26 term. The case raises questions about the double jeopardy clause in relation to the Hobbs Act, specifically whether the Fifth Amendment's prohibition allows for two sentences for a single act that violates two firearm statutes. In another development, the Supreme Court heard arguments in Ames v. Ohio Department of Youth Services, where a straight woman claims reverse discrimination due to her sexual orientation. The case questions whether a majority-group plaintiff alleging discrimination must meet a higher burden than plaintiffs from minority groups under Title VII. The court's decision could impact how discrimination claims are handled across different circuits, including the Sixth Circuit. The justices also declined to review a Christian Arconic employee's suit, which alleged his termination for objecting to the company's use of a rainbow to promote Pride Month violated his religious rights. This decision maintains a circuit split on the issue of religious speech accommodations under Title VII.
