The Supreme Court on Monday morning upheld a federal law that bars "debt relief agencies," including lawyers, from advising clients to incur more debt for filing for bankruptcy.

The justices also granted review in a controversial First Amendment case from Maryland stemming from the 2006 combat death of a marine in Iraq.
