Explaining SCOTUS Opinions 'In Plain English'

Over at SCOTUSblog Lisa McElroy has a very good piece explaining last week's Supreme Court decisions. More relevant to the title of this posting, the article continues with a good, straight-forward explanation of the Court's opinion writing process. This one probably isn't for any clerks in the audience, but for those interested in a simple explanation of the how the Supreme Court functions, Ms. McElroy's article will suit your purposes quite well.
