So Kennedy makes it official.
There’s no laws, just his opinion.
The law says there’s a 25 day waiting period. The 9th circuit pre-empted that without authority.
Kennedy just agreed.
By what authority?
None. He just made it up.
Actually that’s not quite accurate. There is no law. It is a court procedure. Big difference.
Also, the 9th Circuit was the one that issued the injunction, not SCOTUS. Technically, the 9th Circuit could have lifted it’s injunction at any time, even while the case was being heard. So the timing of when the 9th Circuit decides to lift it’s injunction has nothing to do with the 25 day period to ask for a re-hearing.
And let me be clear yet again. I am NOT siding with the Court’s decision in this matter. Just explaining the Procedure is all.
