[Ed. Technically, I could file a full petition for writ of cert... but I’m not going to. Cort’s case is strong and the issue is squarely before them. Tomorrow I will do an analysis of Cort’s case vs. my case to explain all of the reasons why Cor’s case is better.]
Leo, Ive been asked to pass along some information for your consideration from a person whos unable to access your website while at work. Heres his info:

This order list was released by the United States Supreme Court on Monday, 12/8/2008. Near the top, in the category ORDERS IN PENDING CASES is this:
08A407 DONOFRIO, LEO C. V. WELLS, NJ SEC. OF STATE The application for stay addressed to Justice Thomas and referred to the Court is denied. But heres the thing. The application for stay is denied. But the case IS pending.
The document seems to be separating out a certain number of cases as Orders in Pending Cases.
For example, right below the Donofrio case is this:
08M32 PONEK, JOHN V. FLORIDA
There is nothing there saying anything is denied. The rest of the document contains no reference to this.
Question: Are these the pending cases and does this mean that the case is still alive and the only thing denied was the stay to stop the electors from meeting? Legal minds and advise needed. Please weigh in. What does this mean? Lawyers?
I just asked a lawyer who is also a reference librarian at a university law library, and he said that your interpretation of the posting is correct: that the Supreme Court has denied Donofrios Application for an Emergency Stay, but that their consideration of hearing the case itself is still pending.
I must admit, I was surprised. I was expecting him to say the opposite, since it seems everyone is reporting that the SCOTUS has made the decision not to hear Donofrio v. Wells.

Thank you, God bless you and God bless and protect America!
