A judge on a San Francisco-based appeals court has requested that the entire court vote on whether to review a three-judge panel’s decision to not reinstate President Donald Trump’s travel ban.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit instructed the administration and the plaintiffs, Washington and Minnesota, to file legal briefs by next Thursday with their opinions about whether the ruling should be reviewed “en banc.”
That process would task the entire 11-judge appeals court at the Ninth Circuit to reconsider the case. The three-judge panel unanimously declined to lift a temporary restraining order on Trump’s executive order on immigration and refugees on Thursday evening.
The news comes as the White House has said it would likely not appeal the decision to the Supreme Court or have it reviewed en banc, and instead said it would fight for the controversial policy in a lower district court in Seattle. But White House chief of staff Reince Priebus subsequently said that the administration is still considering an appeal to the Supreme Court.
Trump also told reporters on Friday that he is considering signing a “brand new order” on immigration and refugees. Reworking the ban to be narrower could give it a better chance of holding up in court.
The three-judge panel that heard the case this week included Judges William C. Canby Jr., a Jimmy Carter appointee; Richard R. Clifton, a George W. Bush appointee; and Michelle T. Friedland, a Barack Obama appointee.
The judge who requested the vote on whether to review the ruling is unknown.
The US is plagued by judicial tyranny. As another example, a federal judge recently ordered this to a civil litigant before illegally confiscating his property:
“You are a fool, a fool, a fool, a fool to screw with a federal judge, and if you don’t understand that, I can make you understand it … I have the full force of the Navy, Army, Marines and Navy behind me,”
Don’t bother; these _judges_ couldn’t understand law if their lives depended upon it. Which way is up?
Yes, I agree. go to the Supreme Court after Gorsuch gets seated but no 9th Circuit En Banc. It has to be a trap!!
I’ll admit: If one of these three clowns is killed by a terrorist, I’ll laugh.
The 9th is looking to escape being the scapegoat for all sorts of future events beyond their control that WILL come down on them like a ton of bricks..
Bump!
The Ninth Circus should be broken up, and reform it to cover just California. Create a couple new federal circuit courts of appeal from the states that are left.
Stall tactic to let in even more illegals before trump prevails
The 9th is now holding the hot potato(e) without a way to get rid of it.
I suggested it before.....Detention centers for REFUGEES since refugees are actually temporary and intend to return home. (I think that's right.)
TRAP to stop the President from writing a new Executive Order.
Totally agree. The nuts on this court know the administration will win the actual case if it is ever actually litigated. If they can stall, then the clock will run out on the EO and the case is moot saving them embarrassment.
The country would join you.

I have to say my gut is usually correct and it is screaming hell no right now!!!!!
“They probably got a whiff of the the bill to dissolve the clown circus by republican senators! ...too late clown!!!”
I’m thinking that you’re right. The black robes are also sweating over such words as “impeachment” and “treason.”
To me, this is a snarky move. Trump called their decision ‘political’ so now the 3 want their buddies to sign on, too, as a one-upmanship.
After Trump wins this, I hope he pulls a Bush and fires a truckload of judges who feel they can legislate from the bench.
I think the 9th Circuit finally crossed the line and they’re about to realize it. They’re going to regret what they did and this will happen soon. Bet the rent.
Yup. They own the possibility of a terrorist attack, as well as the dissolution of their beloved corut.
BTW,extra points for an obscure reference to Dan Quayle.
Blink???
I’ll shed no tears if they’re caught in the middle of a terrorist attack.
