RELIST WATCH

The Relist Watch column examines cert petitions that the Supreme Court docket has “relisted” for its upcoming convention. A brief rationalization of relists is on the market right here.

Retired Justice Sandra Day O’Connor – the primary lady ever appointed to the Supreme Court docket – died at age 93 on Dec. 1. Due to her dying, the Supreme Court docket canceled that day’s convention, and rescheduled all 214 of the petitions and purposes distributed for that day to be thought-about at this week’s convention. The courtroom has its work lower out for it: It now has 290 petitions and purposes to be thought-about this week.

The Supreme Court docket sometimes doesn’t relist circumstances till the Monday (or first weekday) earlier than that week’s convention. After this Friday, the courtroom doesn’t have a daily convention scheduled till Jan. 5. So if issues go as anticipated, it is going to be practically a month till you hear from me once more.

That’s all for now. Till subsequent time, keep protected!
