She was ordered to act by Friday (today). Is she in compliance with the court order?

It is going to the Supreme Court - but since they are not in session it goes to one Justice who is "on call."

I read on Free Republic on another thread that the Justice is Stevens - so she and the Marxists criminals will get away with this - laughing all the way.

-- It is going to the Supreme Court - but since they are not in session it goes to one Justice who is "on call." --

The Ohio Secretary of State filed a motion to stay the lower court's TRO on Wednesday (HowAppealing blurb with link to application for a stay). SCOTUS has been in session for a couple of weeks now, but that distinction isn't relevant for purposes of entertaining a Motion to review a TRO. "In" and "Out" of session pertains to the calendar for disposing of Petitions for a Writ of Certiorari.

Rule 23. Stays

1. A stay may be granted by a Justice as permitted by law.

2. A party to a judgment sought to be reviewed may present to a Justice an application to stay the enforcement of that judgment. See 28 U. S. C. § 2101(f).

3. An application for a stay shall set out with particularity why the relief sought is not available from any other court or judge. Except in the most extraordinary circumstances, an application for a stay will not be entertained unless the relief requested was first sought in the appropriate court or courts below or from a judge or judges thereof. An application for a stay shall identify the judgment sought to be reviewed and have appended thereto a copy of the order and opinion, if any, and a copy of the order, if any, of the court or judge below denying the relief sought, and shall set out specific reasons why a stay is justified. The form and content of an application for a stay are governed by Rules 22 and 33.2.

She looks like his daughter. Blank, pale, one foot in the grave.
