Sessions v. Dimaya, No. 15-1498

For this essay, you will need to look up a Supreme Court Case. The case, Sessions v. Dimaya, No. 15-1498, was first argued in January 2017 before an eight-member court left short-handed by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia. The justices deadlocked 4 to 4, and the case was argued again in October after Justice Gorsuch joined the court. When the case was heard again the vote was 5 to 4. For this essay, you will need to give a brief history of the case and take a position. Keep in mind this case has already been heard and the written opinions made by the justices are available to you. PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE or use sources without in text source citations. The purpose of this exercise is not only to get you to see how the judicial branch operates but also to demonstrate the law is subject to interpretation. Additionally, this is a great example of separation of powers. Please use proper APA format.
