Monday Orders

| 0 Comments

The U.S. Supreme Court's Monday orders list is here. No surprises. The cases granted for briefing and argument this term were announced after the conference on Friday, including the Giles case discussed here.

Among the cases turned down today is Black v. California, the California Supreme Court's decision on remand after Cunningham. See People v. Black, 41 Cal. 4th 799, 161 P.3d 1130 (2007).

Orin Kerr has this post at VC on the oral argument in Virginia v. Moore this morning. "On the whole, the argument went extremely well for Virginia. In the first half hour, the Justices seemed to think Virginia's position was so obviously correct that they appeared rather bored." Look for a frothing denunciation of the opinion in the 2009 pocket part of LaFave's Search and Seizure.
