Supreme Court vs. Sotomayor   [Ed Whelan]

Judge Sotomayor thought it appropriate to use an unpublished summary order to dispose of the claims of the New Haven firefighters in Ricci v. DeStefano.  Today the Supreme Court issued 93 pages of opinions in the case that Sotomayor acted to bury.

 

Further, although there is a sharp 5-4 divide among the justices, not a single justice thought that Judge Sotomayor acted correctly in granting summary judgment for the City of New Haven.
