To me, recusal means that a Justice has a conflict of interest.
In this case she did not participate in the ruling because she did not participate in the hearings or have time to read all of the arguments before the ruling was handed down.
It’s a minor point but I wanted to make it because if she had recused by my definition she would probably do so again but she will not.
*****************************************************************************
In definitions of recusal from many sources, the above is stated, but it is also stated that it can be for other good reasons. So it was also appropriate terminology to use the word recuse. Especially since I clarified that such recusal was due to lack of time to prepare.
And your other MINOR point about her not being seated was also incorrect. So you ought to just keep your MINOR points to yourself, as I asked you to do many weeks ago.
I don’t care to discuss nitpickin’ crap .
She was not seated in time to participate in the case.
I see no reason for you to take my post as hostile to you or for you to be hostile to me, especially if you don’t want to be nitpicky.
I am going to forget this exchange just as I did your last case of taking offense and misconstruing what I said.
You may do as you wish.
