Re; No Leo case on docket- saw this on another board.
Is this true?

“Read the SCOTUS rules. If a case has a chance of being accepted for review, it gets mentioned on the DAY’s ORDER PAPER.

LEO’s and CORT’s are missing on today’s Order Paper. Two other cases are there (hence more validly filed).

There is no other way to SUGAR COAT this. The CASES FAILED.”

Pure speculation. When we hear Leo say that or see the SCOTUS docket updated, then we will know. Until then, it’s anybody’s guess what is going on.

Thanks, but I will wait to hear what Leo Donofrio has to say this evening. It may be that they only release comments about the cases they have decided on, and they have not yet decided on Leo’s case. Could be Monday before we know.

I also read on another thread comments about it’s over, the case is denied. Come to find out those comments were taken from a blog, with it’s source being the media. So, like I said, I will wait to hear from Leo himself.

No. The cases people are referencing are orders for cases that were previously heard.

Donofrio's case is in conference to determine if it will be heard.

Big difference.

From http://www.supremecourtus.gov/casedistribution/casedistributionschedule.html :

"Generally, if a case is considered at a Conference, viewers can expect that the disposition of a case will be announced on an Orders List that will be released at 10:00 a.m. the following Monday."

No one ever expected to see the web site updated with anything today. Relax, stay informed and wait until Monday.
