I hope the lawyers don't censor themselves. I don't always follow their posts, but I sometimes try and sometimes do glean something from them. Wake has a law school. Lawyers going to lawyer. Post freely. Scrolling down posts you don't like or understand is part of being in a message board community.
But yes, breaking things down to layman's terms is always appreciated.
what is the significance of that
Significance of en banc: it just means that a bigger panel of 9th Circuit judges will likely choose to reconsider the current 3-judge panel's decision. It's actually not that significant, imo, and should be expected in a case like this. Other lawyers may disagree.
Significance of "word on the street": the leaks have to come from somewhere, and judges themselves are famously tight-lipped. If someone is actually leaking that certain 9th Circuit judges are "prepping to try to en banc this," then it's probably coming from the clerks. That's a really, really bad look for the clerks. Extreme confidentiality is the rule for judicial clerks.
But if it's to be expected - its not really a leak, right?
Probably not.
Agreed. I enjoy the posts.
And Barca and ITC - its not hard to google things. It's actually a really good way to learn things - read something about something you don't know about, and then seek out further explanation.
Yes, it's still a leak.
The basic point is that judicial chambers are sacrosanct. It's a really bad look for there to be rumors about a judge's (or group of judges) thoughts about a case.
Anyway, everybody can carry on. I'm getting all righteous about this but it's a sideshow on this thread.

thanks for the #protip
an/or i could ask people i sort of know to break it down
Or entirely skip and ignore it, apparently.
Word on the street that the judge is going to wear a black robe tomorrow doesn't really call for any outrage, does it?
Agreed. I enjoy the posts.

this mans thirst for knowledge is inspiring.
I think the over/under is 950. Am I close?
over.
I bet i could knock you the fuck out in 10 seconds? I bet I banged way hotter pussy than you. I bet my wife is hotter than yours. I bet my kids are cuter.
I bet I am happier. am i close?
Did you clerk?
Learning how to understand court cases is not a bad skill, given that the courts play a big role in a lot of major political issues. I read tons of cases before I ever went to law school just to try to figure out what's going on in the country. The judiciary is the only branch of government that actually explains itself in written form, it's a shame to have to rely upon often-incomplete media reports of what they decided.
