Deanne Maynard and Joe Palmore spoke to Reuters about

of questions by each justice in order of seniority, but justices
will also have an opportunity after the initial round of open

protocol will likely add time to arguments, but the continuation of
the justice-by-justice period is a sign that the court saw benefits
from giving each justice a chance to get answers from
advocates.
