SCOTUS never admits getting anything wrong. Don’t hold your breath for that. What SCOTUS has done in the past is correct a previous mistake by recognizing the evolution of understanding about a legal question and then applying a new rule. But no sitting Court will ever deign to question the dignity or credibility of a previous slate of justices even when it becomes patently obvious that the previous Court’s decision was in error.
