The Obama Administration is looking for a second bite at the apple, asking that the Supreme Court rehear a challenge to President Barack Obamas executive amnesty programs.
In a petition to the court, Acting Solicitor General Ian Gershengorn requested that the justices rehear the case once the seat of the late Justice Antonin Scalia is filled and the court stands at nine members.
Ordinarily, it is exceedingly rare for this Court to grant rehearing. But when this Court has conducted plenary review and then affirmed by vote of an equally divided court because of a vacancy rather than a disqualification, the Court has not infrequently granted rehearing before a full Bench, the Justice Departments petition reads.
The effort would put Texas and 25 states challenge to Obamas 2014 executive amnesty programs Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) and expanded Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) back on the courts to-do list.
Last month the eight justices currently on the Supreme Court divided on the matter, issuing a single sentence order The judgment is affirmed by an equally divided Court. The 4-4 decision left a lower courts ruling, blocking the executive amnesty programs, in tact.

How many times has this POS told people to give up because SCOTUS gave us the “law of the land”?
Any chance of a recess appointment (temporary) to the SC?
Then a quick hearing and a 5-4 vote before Obama is out?
Suck it up Barry, you are out of line once again.....whoever thought this Mulatto would or could lead anything....
Currently, there is a bill out of committee to permit an unlimited number of Afghanis to come here.
There is already an ongoing program to permit unlimited ‘Syrians’.
He’ll hit 1,000,000 muslim green cards, 100,000 of which, IIRC, will come from this year.
Or: “what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”
There is that option too. :)
This is an apt example of a democrat trait. They never give up on pushing their agenda no matter how ludicrous their case is. They have no shame.
Sounds like he used the dept of Just-Us to take a hit at it. Between his executive orders and the dept of Just-Us, they probably cannot even believe that they have to ask the SCOTUS to re-hear it.
Will he ask them to rehear Roe v. Wade?
Rule 44 of the U.S. Supreme Court Rules provides that a losing party may ask the Court to reconsider. It's often requested but very rarely granted.
SCOTUS.
Obama is counting on the Republicans to once again implement his agenda in a lame duck Congress.

“asking that the Supreme Court rehear a challenge to President Barack Obamas executive amnesty programs.”
The executive branch cannot write law. Only the legislature may write law. Period. Go back to high school civics class, president Buckwheat. And take your entire neo-facsist bureaucracy with you, you 50 IQ moron.
Obama, you are yesterday’s news.
Pound sand there little man.
Pound sand.
And when the Donald becomes pres, first thing he does is get rid of all your buttboys you put in positions of power.
That and gear up the dept of justice to go afteryour criminal RICO ass as well as the Klintoons.
