Ok, basically all we have to do is write a 4-6 page paper on one supreme court case from the past fifty years that I think was decided wrongly. I have to write a convincing argument to explain why the Supreme's Court's decision was incorrect. I must base my reasons on Constitutional arguments, precedents, and history.

I am not asking you guys to write this for me, but I was wondering what would be the best supreme court case to pick? As in, what case would have the most available resources and easier to write a lot on.

Look up Veterans cases where a Veteran takes to the Supreme Court that the Medicine he had taken for 20 years has caused his disability. The Supreme Court ruled against the claim and was later overturned a year later when a Congressional Senator stepped in.
The end result landed the VA a 80 billion Dollar hike to their yearly budget to create programs to help Veterans addicted to Medicine..hows that for Apples.

It also opened a door to any other claim for Service Connection and has to be awarded from ill effects on long term use on Narcotic Medicines.
