what's that?
ahh
scotus orders
What happens if they hadn't separated the votes?
Since per constitution the state legislators make election rules, it is silly that roberts bounced it back, this could have been avoided.
The reason it got bounced back is because of the potential of a 4/4 split. At least now it could be a 5/4 or 6/3 in favor of Trump
@WatchingYouDaily If ACB votes as we expect. She's already declined to participate. Robert Barnes has no faith in her.
@GregInHouston2 I had not faith in her I am with Barnes on his selection because Barbara Lagoa would have taken the time to get familiar with the briefs and would have taken the time to review them during oral arguments as well. She is a member of the same National Honor Society I am but I am a 2 chapter inductee. Also, In April 2019, Lagoa wrote for the unanimous court when it found that DeSantis acted within his authority by suspending Sheriff Scott Israel for his response to the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.
I thought day before election acb had opportunity to vote on it but said she wasn't prepared, so they bounced it back because view would remain 4 4 without her vote.
I think Barnes was right, hope I'm wrong
@NavigateTheAbyss, you just advanced to level 1!

When is Powell going to start her litigation
You probably want to put your question in the election2020 case section. But I imagine it's likely the same pleading that is in the court listener link I just posted, which also has all of the evidence files.
If a case makes it on the docket, does that guarantee it gets heard?
Do you mean on the docket for the Supreme Court? Yes. If they "grant cert" then the case will be considered.

So, it's gonna be heard?
I think they are just showing the initial filings with the court. I see no order granting Cert
Ah, I see. Thanks!

"If the Justices decide to accept a case (grant a petition for certiorari), the case is placed on the docket."
That would show up in the orders as `Petition GRANTED`, no?
do you have an example showing this is wrong? its uscourts.gov lol
can someone show me a case where the record shows a case being docketed and then later declined to be heard?
hmm looking back at the cases on the scotus homepage, it does show docketed preceeding petition granted
all very confusing, it would be great if robert would pop in and tell us whats up in a sentence or two lol
Yeppers. If they grant cert then they case will be heard.
I do not see an Order of Cert from the SC, yet.
Generally a Justice will review the complaint. He/She may then direct further filings (response, brief, whatever). When the Court reviews those filings they will decide whether or not to grand Cert.
Hmm.. So, in light of this ruling on the case in PA, it's likely they will not grant cert on the TX case. Am I understanding it right?

Im not sure about how their electronic docketing system works. I dont think the fact that it made the electronic filing system/electronic docket that cert is granted. I just think its a way to keep up with the status. No cert, yet.
Oh wow.... that is news to me. the SCOTUS declined to take the case....
I honestly think that Texas is going to have standing problems so I sincerely doubt that gets heard
No, the denied the Kelly case
Texas case is docketed
