Re: SCOTUS 15: Help Us, Ruth Bader Ginsburg! You're Our Only Hope!

Makes total sense in a case like this. If they don’t issue the stay while the case is pending, then the records would have to be released right away. After that, they can’t very well go back in 6 months and un-ring the bell. Issuing the stay is the only way to keep their options open until they actually hear the case.

They don't have to grant cert. They can just say the appellate court is correct and Dump can pound sand.

But they won't get around to that decision for at least a month while they wait for the other side to respond and then meet in conference. Again, you can't unring the bell if you let the taxes get released in the meantime.

If they grant cert, then you can scream.

Do you think they will?
 
Is cert five or is a hold five?

Four to grant cert, five to stay. Tradition is that if 4 grant cert, a 5th will provide a courtesy vote to stay as needed. Individual judges can issue temporary stays on their own pending review by the full court.

*ahem*
Gorsuch to appear on Fox and Friends.

I was told this isn't a problem. If I were to say it were now I would just be accused of being a Chicken Little again.

SCOTUS rules 5-4 that the administration can deny green cards to anyone who might need gov't aid.

Cue Scoobs.

This has been on the books for quite a while. But no one has defined what assistance meant or what extent qualifies or disqualifies someone.
