Justice Kennedy Announces His Retirement
Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, a Reagan appointee, is retiring from the Supreme Court after 43 years of service in the federal judiciary. President Trump will likely be able to have his next Supreme Court nominee, federal appellate justice Brett Kavanaugh, confirmed, as Democrats are lacking the numbers required to ultimately block the nomination.
Nevertheless, a partisan battle in the coming months is almost certain to ensue, as President Trump has vowed to select socially conservative judges. Kavanaugh, no stranger to political infighting, had his federal appellate nomination held up by Senate Democrats for three years before ultimately taking the bench.
During his tenure, Kennedy was often a disappointment to conservatives and a wild card for liberals, as he tended to be a swing vote on many social issues. While Kennedy demonstrated pro-business leanings, notably his concern that the Affordable Care Act is unconstitutional, he tended to side with liberal justices regarding social issues such as abortion rights and same sex marriage.
What will a Trump appointee mean
for the balance of power in the most influential court in the land?

Failing to Make a Premium Payment on FMLA
Can an employer cancel an employee's health benefits while on FMLA for failing to make a premium payment? Legally, "yes" if the employee has failed to make a payment, has been properly notified, and has been given a 30-day grace period. However, before cancelling and notifying the insurance carrier, the employer may want to continue the plan and recover the premiums from the employee upon return from FMLA due to administrative burden and employee morale. If the employee does not return, the employer may have recourse to recover
premiums from the employee.
