The Supreme Court’s December argument session will feature the challenge to Tennessee’s ban on puberty blockers and hormone therapy for transgender minors, as well as a case by survivors of the Hungarian Holocaust seeking compensation for the seizure of the property by the Hungarian government and a dispute over the Food and Drug Administration’s efforts to bar flavored e-cigarettes that are likely to appeal to young people.

The court on Friday released the calendar for the December argument session, which will feature eight hours of arguments over six days.

The justices will hear oral arguments on Dec. 4 in one of the highest-profile cases of the term so far, United States v. Skrmetti. The case is a challenge to a law that Tennessee enacted in 2023 to ban gender-affirming care for transgender patients under the age of 18.
