Does anyone know exactly when the SC is supposed to hear this? I couldn't find that in the article (sorry if I've missed it). Thanks.
The SC is not hearing it! Until one of the parties involved the two referenced court cases (Eighth Circuit and the DC Circuit), appeals to the SC; the SC will not get involved. Also, just because you appeal to the SC; it does not mean the SC will hear the appeal. The SC receives far more appeals than it can ever handle; so they have to pick & choose which cases they will actually hear & rule on. The effect can still be the same. If an appeal is filed with the SC, and it is not accepted for hearing; that effectively affirms the findings of the lower court. All of this is done on the public record and is reported in the public media. |
