SCOTUS Takes Up New Criminal Cases

| 0 Comments
Today the U.S. Supreme Court issued a short orders list taking up for full merits briefing and argument     criminal cases:

17-155 Hughes v. United States:  Sentence reduction due to retroactive amendment to the Sentencing Guidelines

17-312 United States v. Sanchez-Gomez:  "Whether the court of appeals erred in asserting authority to review respondents' interlocutory challenge to pretrial physical restraints and in ruling on that challenge notwithstanding its recognition that respondents' individual claims were moot."

17-5716 Koons v. United States:  Another case on sentence reduction and retroactive amendments.

No blockbusters.

Look for a long list of denials Monday.
