Jackson v. SF (Ammo Ban; Locked Storage Reqts.): Cert DENIED 6/8/15

[rlc2]

not going to be irresponsible...

Jackson is a great case that should be granted to correct a serious error of law. But the possible outcomes are, in order (most to least likely): denial, re-list, grant, summary reversal.

and predict or speculate or jinx any of the above-

but, Brandon, you left out "grant, plenary review..."
(chance of, statistically in hundredths of a percent...)


fingers crossed...

Nothing on the orders list today. Jackson lives to fight another day.

Grant came right before summary reversal.

Well, this is good news, hopefully

[lowimpactuser]

So does this mean... RELIST?

That means I got it right!

Well, it means at least someone on the court cares about the case. But it only takes a single judge to relist a case, we need 5 to win it.

Yup. That's in line with the link I quoted a page back. All the cases that were decided summary reversal were either constantly relisted or this. I'm cautiously optomistic, but after Dreke who knows what will happen.

"Apr 27, 2015 DISTRIBUTED for Conference of May 1, 2015."

^^^ So does that mean it was relisted?

[wireless]

Yup

[darkshire]

can we get a summary of what being 'relisted' means in laymans terms ?

[putput]

They're (SCOTUS) still thinking about it and will let us know when they know.

It means that the case was brought up in the conference, there was some reason that the case was not granted cert, summarily reversed, or one of the other positive (in this case) outcomes, but there was at least one judge that wanted to keep the case going, so it will be brought up in the next conference to have the process continue. A case can be relisted as many times as they want.

The most elaborate possibility is that the court has already decided to summarily reverse and remand the case, but they need the time to write up the order and any dissents if they exist. In that case the case will be relisted until the court finishes that process. We have no way to know if this is happening, it is just a possibility that would be awesome.
