But quite convenient timing.

She is a Monster. When has any SC been this proactive?

This isn't the court being proactive. It's the court following SOP.

NOTHING. This should never even be heard. THAT would have been normal.

Maybe you're not familiar with Supreme Court procedures.

Maxwell filed a petition for certiorari arguing that there is a split in the circuits on a legal issue key to her case -- whether a non-prosecution agreement entered into in one district is binding on other districts.

Petitions for cert are considered in conferences held by the justices. Most are denied. A relatively small number are granted.

If the court denies her petition for cert -- something the Trump administration has argued it should do -- Maxwell loses and she stays in prison. If the court grants her petition, the standard operating procedure would be for the court to schedule briefing and oral argument. It doesn't necessarily mean that in the end they will rule in her favor. The Court not infrequently affirms an appellate decision after granting cert to consider an appeal.

That means rulings by a District Court Judge in many cases do not apply in all 50 States, so the Supreme Court has to revisit and clarify its recent ruling. Who didn't see that coming?

Not related. Not cited by any party. No connection whatsoever.

Nt

and whether it will be granted or denied will be decided at conference. Even if it is granted -- not a far fetched idea since the case raises a specific legal question on which the circuits are split, which often is the basis for granting cert -- it doesn't mean that the case, after being scheduled for briefing and argument -- won't result in the court affirming the appeals court decision that Maxwell is challenging.

will be considered -- along with any number of other petitions.

Again, I'm going to assume you simply don't know how Supreme Court procedure works.

My question was did a judge decide to hear her case? If not ok, but if one did, who was it?

At that time, if four of the nine decide the case is "cert-worthy" they will schedule it for briefing and oral argument after which a decision on the merits will be reached. They will probably announce whether they will hear his case -- along with a number of other cases that are scheduled for conference in late September -- when the new court session begins in October.

I apologize, but i'm so upset to see what's happening to our country. so upset!

The SC decide if pedos are ok?

The average American sitting in jail get a looksie appeal from the Supreme Court?
I mean come on.

Of these, around 1200 pay the required $300 filing fee. Most of the rest are filed "in forma pauperis" and the fee is waived. Only around 80 to 100 petitions are granted per year, with the rest being denied.

Clarence seems like he might have 'taken advantage'.

And Maxwell will ultimately be released, unfortunately.
