Notes

  1. ^ Gorsuch joined the Court midterm. Of the justices who participated the entire term, Thomas joined the fewest of Sotomayor's opinions, with five in full, one in part.
  2. ^ a b This opinion was handed down prior to the confirmation of Justice Gorsuch, and so was unanimous as to the eight justices then on the Court.
