Her very first footnote says: "A reasonable person may wonder why the majority has reissued this opinion for the third time, almost four years after the case was submitted on October 7, 2010, particularly when doing so will vacate a prior version of the opinion which has been the subject of a cert petition pending before the Supreme Court for nearly a year.

I will express no opinion about the merits of Justice Nicholson's concurrence in this case, in which he argues that the vast majority of the Court of Appeal's opinion is unnecessary and unhelpful.He's surely right, however, that the most important part of this opinion -- to the litigants, anyway -- is its core finding that a guy convicted of having wire cutters while shoplifting from a store isn't carrying a "deadly weapon" such that he's categorically… [read post]

Since the original decision was a split one -- Judge Watford had joined Judge Gould's majority opinion, and Judge Graber dissented -- there's now a chance that the panel reverses its decision.Which, today, it does. [read post]

Justice McKinster, who dissented back in 2015, is now on board for the majority opinion -- which is edited very slightly -- given the California Supreme Court's intervening decision.But the opinion wasn't edited carefully enough. [read post]

I can say with certainty that the majority of law review articles aren't nearly as good as Judge Bybee's concurrence.Which does not necessarily mean that I'm persuaded by Judge Bybee's approach. [read post]

The majority of which merely recites the facts and history of the case: the reasoning itself entails a mere three pages of text.What the trial court says below is exactly what you're looking for if you're on the losing end of its decision. [read post]

A lot.The majority opinion spans 69 pages. [read post]

Hopefully this advice won't have practical significance for the vast majority of readers here. [read post]

In which case: Go to town.As for the actual result: Judge Murguia writes the majority opinion, which remands the case for a new factual determination regarding whether the defendant is sufficiently mentally retarded to preclude his execution. [read post]

The officers detained the members of the family (handcuffing the vast majority of them, including numerous adolescents) and then searched each of them for weapons. [read post]

(I think I could get up to around sixty or so major charges, but you get the point.)That's okay. [read post]

The thought was this:Amongst the (many) downsides of living on an Indian reservation is the fact that any major crimes for which you're charged get prosecuted in federal court, which is substantially -- substantially -- tougher than state court. [read post]

But one that the majority, like most courts, rejects.So the 62-year old U.S. citizen here gets sent to the Czech Republic to serve a four-year sentence for a not extraordinarily serious property crime (attempted economic extortion). [read post]

When the government invents -- out of whole cloth -- a purported "stash house" that purportedly has a ton of cocaine in it, and then seeks out (in a "reverse sting") people to steal from it, there's a huge ability to set defendants up for long sentences based upon a purported volume of drugs that never actually existed.I would nonetheless side with Judge Fisher's majority opinion.

Split opinions in the Court of Appeals, so the trial court picking what turns out to be the wrong side of this debate is hardly a major slam.The weird part, however, is the second basis for the Ninth Circuit's reversal.The district court also dismissed the lawsuit against the City of Stockton on the ground that the city wasn't a "person" subject to Section 1983 liability.

It is for the majority, but not for Justice Liu. [read post]

As a "flight" of some sort that may well suggest criminality.I doubt that a majority of the Supreme Court would conclude as the panel does here. [read post]
