Supreme Court Takes Up Guantanamo Case

The High Court hears arguments Wednesday regarding whether detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, can challenge their imprisonment in federal court. The detainees claim the constitutionally guaranteed procedure called a writ of habeas corpus allows them a chance to rebut charges against them in front of a neutral judge.

Guests:

David Savage, Supreme Court reporter for The Los Angeles Times

Gitanjali Gutierrez, staff attorney with the Center for Constitutional Rights

David Rivkin, partner, Baker & Hostetler
