I just thought of something. The Supreme Court shuts down from June 26 to the 1st Monday in October. If Obama wants to abuse the law over the summer, there’s no final appeal. (It also makes me wonder why the Obama administration didn’t wait a few more weeks before stiffing the secured creditors of Chrysler.)

Well, that is certainly a scary thought. Ignorance ?...I am sure there is a safeguard to prevent things like that from happening. I guess the country is always (or could be) put on hold during the USSC summer hiatus. We have never had a President like this before. Our rallying call should be "NEVER AGAIN".

Not true. Just because the justices are away from the Court for the summer and don’t hold regular conferences during that time doesn’t mean they can’t issue stays or orders. It’s not unheard of for a justice to keep in touch with the Court from places as far away as Prague or Alaska.

Not true, any Justice can issue a temporary stay, and put off a hearing until they come back into session.
