The Supreme Court issued its one sentence decision in the Confrontation Clause case, Briscoe v. Virginia (07-11191) today. 

"We vacate the judgment of the Supreme Court of Virginia and remand the case for further proceedings not inconsistent with the opinion in Melendez-Diaz v. Massachusetts, 557 U. S. ___ (2009)."

The per curiam decision is just one of several recent cases that the Court has scheduled for full briefing and oral argument and then dumped.  We'll post a more detailed analysis later today.
