Supreme Court Could Agree To Hear Affordable Care Act Case As Soon As Nov. 10 | The nine justices are scheduled to have their first discussion of whether or not to hear one or more of the challenges to the Affordable Care Act on Thursday, Nov. 10. This means that the Court could announce that it is hearing the case as soon as that date — although the announcement could potentially come later. Although the Court could conceivably turn down the case entirely, that is unlikely because the Court typically hears cases where a federal law has been struck down by one or more courts of appeal and where the courts of appeal disagree on a question of law.
