Step one. Next comes an appelate panel. Then the entire appelate court. Then the Supremes.

Step one. Next comes an appelate panel.

From THE WASHINGTON COMPOST:

The Virginia suit would ordinarily next be heard by the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. Cuccinelli has indicated, however, that he would like to bypass the appeals court and move directly to the Supreme Court, an extraordinary legal maneuver that would require the high court to decide that the case held extreme public importance and intervene immediately.

He has asked the White House to sign on to the request, arguing they, too, would benefit from a quick resolution to legal questions surrounding the law. However, it is not clear whether the White House will agree.

Gotta wonder if the second paragraph is a bit of theater. Odinga and fellow Dhimmitards would like nothing better than for confusion to reign.

“Step one. Next comes an appelate panel. Then the entire appelate court. Then the Supremes.”

I thought this court was the “rocket docket” which went straight to the Supremes on appeal due to D.C. being in its area.

Legal eagles correct me if I’m wrong.
