List of United States Supreme Court cases, volume 562

This is a list of all the United States Supreme Court cases from volume 562 of the United States Reports:

Note: As of the start of October Term 2015, final-bound volumes for the U.S. Supreme Court's United States Reports now exist through Volume 561, covering cases decided on or before September 10, 2010 (the end of October Term 2009). Cases decided after that date are published without a page number. Citations to these should likewise omit the page number, using instead the Court's docket number (e.g., Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. ___ (1973), Docket No. 70-18.). Once the decision is bound and printed with an officially-assigned page number then the official number can replace the blanks and the docket number may be removed if desired (e.g., Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973) ). Any recent decision (i.e., from a later volume than that listed above), if shown here with a page number, is based on unofficial reporting, and is subject to change when it is bound and printed.
