Arizona's attempt to reinstate the death sentence of murderer Richard Hurles is back in the U.S. Supreme Court. The prior petition was "relisted" an astonishing 22 times before the Ninth Circuit withdrew its opinion and issued a new one, causing the state to withdraw its petition. The case was noted many times on this blog, including this post and this post, and it was a "regular" in John Elwood's "Relist Watch" at SCOTUSblog.
The new petition is number 14-191.
