Land in central Arizona holds great spiritual value to the Western Apache Indians and is on the world's third-largest deposit of copper ore.

When the Arizona Supreme Court handed down its ruling in a pair of arson and DUI cases this month, the announcement wasn’t delivered by a judge or spokesperson, but instead by two AI avatars that are virtually indistinguishable from real people.

The group Apache Stronghold is vowing to carry on the fight against a massive copper mining project on land the Apaches hold sacred, after a Supreme Court decision that is expected to let the mine proceed.

The move 'will render hundreds of thousands of people deportable,' according to one immigration advocacy group.

Under the Help America Vote Act (HAVA), any state receiving money for elections must also establish an administrative process allowing people to file complaints about alleged violations of the law. If the state determines there’s a HAVA violation, it must provide an appropriate remedy, the law says; if not, it can dismiss the complaint.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday announced it won’t hear a closely tracked religious freedom clash out of Arizona and revealed that at least two of the court’s nine justices aren’t pleased with the decision.

Assembling outside a court to protest or report the news is usually protected by the First Amendment. But in Phoenix, watchdogs are pushed offsite.
