Updated 04.21.2023 @ 7 pm Eastern — the time out is now permanent until the Supremes rule on any future appeal out of the Fifth Circuit. End update.
The Justices continue to discuss next steps.
Will they simply strike Matthew Kacsmaryk’s crazy opinion, and/or the only slightly less cray-cray Fifth Circuit one… or wait (continue the stay for weeks or months) to hear more argument?
No sensible person is betting they will let the trial court opinion take effect. Here’s the latest:
…UPON FURTHER CONSIDERATION of the application of counsel for the applicants, the response, and the reply filed thereto,
IT IS ORDERED that the stay issued on April 14, 2023, is hereby extended until 11:59 p.m. (EDT) on Friday, April 21, 2023.
/s/ Samuel A. Alito, Jr.
Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United StatesDated this 19th day of April 2023….
Now you know. Onward. [And you know the Powerline boys are out of stuff to write about, when they don’t comment on old whyte men killing kids on their porches, or on Faux News losing nearly a billion dollar settlement for LYING on air about the 2020 election, or even on this case… but instead decide to go nutty on CANADIAN public television and public radio… funding. WTF, Steve — what business of yours, is that?!]
