SCOTUS Watch
Watching The Supreme Court is always frustrating. There is a tendency for things to take a long time. David Snope filed a petition for writ of certiorari on September 23, 2024.

Bondi v. Vanderstock 604 U.S. ___ (2025)
This is an outcome that I disagree with. This was a 7-2 option in favor of the state (the bad guys). Thomas wrote a great dissent, I agree with him about the correct outcome. Alito did a better job of explaining why the court got it wrong. On the record here, I would not hold…

Mahmoud Khalil v. William P. Joyce, 25-cv-01935, (S.D.N.Y.)
This is an interesting and challenging case, for me. This is a Constitutional challenge to Mahmoud being detained and then deported. His claim is that this is a violation of his First and Fifth Amendment protected rights. Because it is a violation of his rights, the court should grant him relief. Mahmoud is an Arab…

Department of State v. Aids Vaccine Advocacy Coalition – SCOTUS
I am NOT a Lawyer. That being said, I do analyze large systems all the time. And as my mentor used to say, “The justice system is just a system.” History of the case: January 20, 2025: EO 14,169 was signed by President Trump. “It is the policy of the United States that no further…

Dellinger v. Bessent (D.D.C. 25-cv-00385)
When I was in elementary school, the principal still had a paddle hanging on the wall behind him. The principal was the person that hired and fired teachers and all other staff at the school. They had significant power. To quote Stan Lee, “With great power comes great responsibility.” Most principals did use their power…
