BTW....

SALIM AHMED HAMDAN V. DONALD RUMSFELD
January 12, 2006

The U.S. Government files a brief with the Supreme Court seeking to dismiss a Guantanamo detainee's case from the Court's docket. The government argues that when Congress passed the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 (signed into law on December 30, 2005), it meant that "alien[s] held in military custody at Guantanamo Bay" could not seek writs of habeas corpus in federal court challenging the legality of their military detentions.

Good summary of Hamdan on scotusblog too. Easier than reading the motions and briefs.

Government asks Court to dismiss Hamdan.
