Friendly reminder that if you see this guy on here, please note that he is NOT an actual Catholic priest, he is part of some other religious sect not associated or in good standing with the real Catholic Church

Disparate impact should never have been extended outside of the employment law context. It was only ever created because proof of disparate treatment could rarely be discovered because of the resource imbalance between plaintiffs and defendants.
Insane takes like this are the result of that legal fiction.

@scotus_wire I'm aware of what the majority's opinion was, and it's bullshit. The purpose of a system is what it does.
English
This is the part of the ruling that really kills the VRA. Basically means that racial gerrymandering is permissible if it's the only way to attain a partisan goal; you can't draw eg a 7-0 in Alabama that doesn't racially gerrymander, so the alternate map standard is impossible.
English
@HabCorpLinguist Yup. There’s absolutely no point in having state bicameral legislatures post-Reynolds.
English
It’s because Reynolds v. Sims was wrongly decided.

Can someone enlighten me in what world US state senates make sense. So in the one house there are districts that represent people and in the other one there are districts that represent people but slightly less???
English
Been a while since I've done this:
Ask me anything for 30 minutes!

@CatholicPods Maybe Peter considering “Fulton” was his maternal grandparents’ surname.
English
How many people will actually name their son Fulton? Maybe as a middle name?
English
@JimCarrollSF @realestatedude0 I can’t imagine it being worthwhile unless you’re already suing, and even then maybe not. For example if the procedural posture is wrong (e.g., post-default) repleading or moving to plead a supplemental complaint to claim an additional $300 creates a lot more risk than reward.
English
@scotus_wire @BasedMikeLee I’ve long theorized this would be a really simple fix for the nationwide injunction problem until something more permanent could be hashed out.
English
Alabama currently has a direct appeal pending before the Supreme Court over its court-imposed congressional map that adds a second majority-black seat.
The Court has taken no action on it since November, likely waiting for a ruling in Callais.
English
@HabCorpLinguist They shoehorned a transgender bathroom bill into it.
English
FHA is already law, so what is this bill doing, exactly?
I have a feeling there’s some BS included in there.
Micah Erfan@micah_erfan
Every single Republican voted against it.

@SunWeatherMan @mattforney She voluntarily dismissed her civil suit yesterday, exactly one day after getting an attorney. Odds are she’ll refile.
English
Fuentes is very lucky he did not get hit with harsher charges. He didn't just pepper spray that poor woman, he shoved her down a set of stairs and could have seriously injured her. She was clearly not a threat to him and he chose to open the door instead of ignoring her.

@PitBottomSuper @kitten_beloved Times New Roman is ugly. Century Schoolbook is a standard typeface available in Word. It makes sense.
Florida appellate courts require either Arial or Bookman Old Style. The latter is just so disgustingly wide.
English
@kitten_beloved Not just the margins but also the use of Century Schoolbook as a font. So arbitrary; so mysterious.
English
I've always found the court's use of giant margins in their opinions to be so majestic, what a power move to squeeze the text down to less than half of the paper
Sean Davis@seanmdav
BREAKING: In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court rules that racial gerrymandering, which has been used to create majority black congressional districts for decades, is unconstitutional. Justice Samuel Alito wrote the opinion for the majority.
English
It’s a matter of good document design and enhances readability. It’s a practice that should be adopted in general legal writing (like briefing and pleadings) over 1" with double spaced lines because the latter is just not as readable, and you can make much more useful handwritten notes by writing in the margins.
English
@zachary_aman Motion to dismiss because all of Plaintiff’s gravy-related causes of action are preempted by the Carmack Amendment.
English
@SMBDealGuy @SMB_Attorney Yes. It’s going to be a problem for another couple years imo. Even after the AI tools improve to the point that they aren’t generating truly fake citations.
English
@SMB_Attorney Stories like this are going to keep coming out at a faster rate over the next 6-12 months
English
@horadrimsage @SMB_Attorney The first thing is technically already done by signing a court filing under Rule 11 or the state’s equivalent. Requiring a separate certification is just more wasted space.
Bar discipline definitely needs to start happening in these more egregious cases.
English
@SMB_Attorney A simple solution would be for the a Filer to certify that all references have been checked under penalty of something. And/or have the Bar start suspending licenses. People take shortcuts, but this is unexcusable
English
@ElectionCenter_ This isn’t how the Court’s jurisdiction works. If they purported to rule on a matter not properly before them, it would be dicta (though as a practical matter, highly persuasive inasmuch as one would expect the Court to rule that way in a future case).
English
Then they should have explicitly said that. The Supreme Court doesn’t get to claim itself as a legitimate institution and be coy about what its rulings mean.
SCOTUS Wire@scotus_wire
@ElectionCenter_ You have to look at WHY the VRA doesn't require that seat, which is outlined in the opinion today. For the same reason that the 2nd seat isn't required, the 1st seat is also unlikely to be required. Not sure what the disconnect is here.
English
@UpdatingOnRome I think Illinois should adopt the Glock switch as its official firearm.
English
I’m upset I didn’t know some states had an official firearm, and even more upset that Michigan doesn’t have one.
English
@marcorandazza If you have a vote you are represented. Our society isn’t composed of affinity voting blocs. This isn’t Lebanon (President must be Catholic, PM must be Sunni, Speaker of House must be Shiite) or New Zealand (seven reserved seats of Parliament for Māoris).
English
Democrats are claiming there will be no more black representation
Meanwhile, the Republican nominee for governor in Virginia was a Black immigrant. The Republican senator from South Carolina is Black, our favorite Justice is Black
So what’s the truth?
English
@librarythingtim @Patrick30887310 Last time I looked you had to click “show more” before it said “Old Catholic.” Frankly, I’m of the view that “Old Catholic” and “Old Roman Catholic” are deceptive terms that should not be used.
English
@Patrick30887310 It says it right in his bio—he's an Old Catholic. Look it up? They split from the Catholic Church after Vatican I. Whether or not he's a *parish* priest is irrelevant, of course; lots of Catholic priest in good standing aren't parish priests.

@JoshuaMyth @CrimeofCritique “Oh yeah.” and she takes a big sip of water.
