The issue in one case, Mims v. Arrow Financial Services, is whether the federal courts have jurisdiction over private claims under the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act; the Times has a story on that here. Ronald Mann has more at the SCOTUS Blog.The second case, First American Financial v. Edwards, involves standing to sue under RESPA's anti-kickback provision; the National Law Journal has coverage of the oral arguments in both cases here (paid subscription required). The SCOTUS blog also has a piece on Edwards by Christopher Wright.
