Morgan Ratner was asked by the Supreme Court to defend the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit's rationale in a habeas case, as reported by Bloomberg Law. The article notes that Morgan is one of only a handful of female attorneys asked by the Supreme Court to argue in support of a lower court opinion that the parties decline to defend. She previously argued eight cases before the Court during her time at the U.S. Solicitor General's Office before joining S&C's Supreme Court and Appellate practice. According to Bloomberg Law, Morgan is just the ninth woman of at least 69 appointments the court has made since 1926.
