This article discusses the current Supreme Court discrimination case. Liptak seeks to explain how two recent Supreme Court decisions have established two contradicting precedents, that will make deciding this case a difficult task. Liptak explores the two previous cases, one of which deals directly with discrimination, and the other that deals with statutes of limitations.
The article uses a lot of legal jargon and discusses the recent issues in the case. The article is clearly not written for any old audience, but instead seeks to inform those who already have an understand of the Legislative system and the underling issues involved in the case. The article frames the case as a debate between the two sides, one of which, the article implies, will be more "right."
The article does not offer a clear outline of both sides of the case, but rather discusses the alleged discrimination, what should have been done to fix the problem before it went to court, and how the Supreme Court has created a difficult situation for themselves with their past rulings.
