In an odd way, the shrouded SC building is apropos given just how craven and gutless the big 6 truly are as unsigned documents backing the Trump administration is the modus operandi of the worst SC in history. This time, the give centered on the TA's continued firing of federal employees without due process. Abdication of duty applies.
In law, a per curiam decision or opinion (sometimes called an unsigned opinion) is one that is not authored by or attributed to a specific judge, but rather ascribed to the entire court or panel of judges who heard the case.[1] The term per curiam is Latin for 'by the court'.[2]
In other words, a hedge.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday backed President Donald Trump’s effort to carry out mass firings and reorganizations at federal agencies, putting on hold a lower court order that had temporarily blocked the president from taking those steps without approval from Congress.
The decision is the latest in a series of significant wins for Trump at the Supreme Court, including an opinion making it more difficult to challenge executive orders and rulings backing the administration’s deportation policies.
In an unsigned order, the high court said that lower courts had stopped the plans based on the administration’s general effort, rather than specific agency “reduction in force” plans that would drastically cut the size of the government workforce.
No vote count was released, but Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a member of the court’s liberal wing, dissented.
Any questions?
