On November 17, 2016, Contreras dismissed a lawsuit against U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell seeking to compel a vote on the U.S. Supreme Court nomination of Merrick Garland, finding that the plaintiff, who had simply alleged he was a voter, had no standing to sue.
Contreras accepted Flynn's guilty plea to one count of making false statements to the FBI in the course of their investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
The guilty plea was part of a plea bargain with the Special Counsel investigation led by Robert S. Mueller III.

He ruled that the Constitution's "Speech or Debate Clause" prohibited lawsuits over Congress' legislative efforts.
He concluded that "the Court can conceive of few other actions, besides actually debating, speaking, or voting, that could more accurately be described as 'legislative' than the regulation of how votes may be cast".
On March 5, 2021, Contreras ruled that the states of Illinois, Nevada, and Virginia had ratified the Equal Rights Amendment too late – as it had occurred after the congressionally-imposed 1982 deadline – for the amendment to be valid.
