No rav will listen to the Supreme Court. The halacha does not recognize it, and the Supreme Court can't change the halacha
-- former Chief Rabbi of Ramat Gan Rav Yaakov Ariel
Rav Ariel is right. But if the Supreme Court decision stands as is, it will simply become a decentralized system more like it is in other countries - the Reform will do their conversions and the Orthodox will not recognize such converts as Jewish, and the State will. That is the way it works everywhere else, and, again - if the decision stands, is how it will end up working here. The Supreme Court decision will not cause the Orthodox to recognize Reform converts as Jewish
