US Supreme Court News

There will be no U.S. Supreme Court opinions during May until May 16. There will also be opinions on May 23 and May 31. One of the 35 cases which has been argued, but for which no opinion has yet been issued, is Clingman v Beaver, 04-37. That decision may come out on May 23. This is the case originally filed by the Oklahoma Libertarian Party in 2000, on the issue of whether a party may insist that all registered voters be allowed to vote in its primary.

In the Oregon Nader case, no. 04-872, the Court has not yet announced the date on which it will consider whether to take that case. It is called Kucera v Bradbury. Other Nader ballot access cases still pending (in lower courts) are from Arizona, Hawaii, and Ohio.
