Darrenf 422 Posted April 7, 2017 He will be seated on Monday April 10, 2017! Just in time for this case. You missed it by a week. He takes his seat on Monday the 17th. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJGF 375 Posted April 7, 2017 If you look back at previous justices they tend to retire prior to summer. The hearings take place and then the new justices are confirmed around August and September. So these justices start to hear cases at the beginning of the new session in October. But they are already on the court for other purposes. The current justices include: Justice Alito assumed office on January 31, 2006 Justice Thomas assumed office on October 23, 1991 Justice Kennedy assumed office on February 18, 1988 The full list is at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Justices_of_the_Supreme_Court_of_the_United_States Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJRulz 80 Posted April 17, 2017 No. 16-7165 Title: Marc A. Stephens, Petitioner v. Edward A. Jerejian, Judge, Superior Court of New Jersey, Bergen County, et al. Docketed: December 13, 2016 Lower Ct: United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit Case Nos.: (15-3992) Decision Date: June 16, 2016 Rehearing Denied: July 13, 2016 ~~~Date~~~ ~~~~~~~Proceedings and Orders~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Oct 11 2016 Petition for a writ of certiorari and motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis filed. (Response due January 12, 2017) Jan 10 2017 Waiver of right of respondents Judge Honorable Edward A. Jerejian and John Jay Hoffman to respond filed. Jan 26 2017 DISTRIBUTED for Conference of February 17, 2017. Feb 21 2017 Petition DENIED. Mar 13 2017 Petition for Rehearing filed. Mar 22 2017 DISTRIBUTED for Conference of April 13, 2017. Apr 17 2017 Rehearing DENIED. Justice Gorsuch took no part in the consideration or decision of this petition. I guess Stephens' timing was off. He should have waiting a week or so to resubmit the petition so Gorsuch could have gotten involved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
