Protesters demonstrate in front of the U.S. Supreme Court on the morning that the court took up a major abortion case focusing on whether a Texas law that imposes strict regulations on abortion doctors and clinic buildings interferes with the constitutional right of a woman to end her pregnancy, in Washington, March 2, 2016.
The court is currently hampered by its lack of a ninth justice - Justice Antonin Scalia died in February, and Congress Republicans have declined to consider Obama's proposed replacement, Merrick Garland.
This has led a number of ties and compromises, leaving broader legal questions largely unanswered.
The cases that remain on the docket this term may also end in stalemate or be delayed until the empty seat on the Court is filled.
Here are the controversial cases that the justices are set to decide in the next few weeks.
