Wasn’t the court required to respond to the petition/motion (I don’t know the legal language) for Kagan and Sotomayor to recuse themselves? Did they respond to that?

There is no update on the SCOTUS site. So I am not believing this post at all. SCOTUSBlog is a leftist site.

I also do not see anything on SCOTUSBlog that says that it has been denied. I have called SCOTUS twice today in an attempt to reach the Clerk’s office, but haven’t been able to get through. So until I hear confirmation of this, I am not taking it as 100% truth, though, I tend to believe that this will indeed be the case.

I have little faith in this court to take up this matter.
Thomas has already said they are avoiding it. The Bastards.

Since the court did not vote to grant cert then I would assume the motion to recuse Kagan and Sotomayor was moot. Why recuse them from a Supreme Court hearing that isn't going to happen?
