@chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow If you thought you could get a win. You always would, ideally, want to arrive at SCOTUS on the winning side.
@chrisgeidner @BenWinslow Why would SCOTUS care what the full 10th Circuit decides? SCOTUS is the high court and can do what it wants.
@chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow … one, you'd be more likely to go for that than getting to the court off two losses.
@chrisgeidner @BenWinslow You haven't explained why it would influence SCOTUS. Won't it look to Windsor for precedent, not 10th Circuit?
@chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow Yes, it does whatever it wants. But, going UP TO the court, you want it to be on as good of terms as possible.
@chrisgeidner @chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow En banc possibly gives another appeals court time to rule their way - gives them leg up
@stumbalinaa @chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow Yeah, though, that seems … rife with danger.
@chrisgeidner @chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow if they can delay long enough via en banc, they can probably get favorable decision from 6th circ.
@stumbalinaa @chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow I've never thought the 6th Circuit is as dangerous a place as others have.
@chrisgeidner @chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow 8 GW bush appointes and total of ten republicans and five democrats
@stumbalinaa I'm aware of the circuit make-up. I'm from Ohio. I'm just sayin' what I'm sayin'.
@chrisgeidner @chrisjohnson82 @BenWinslow The 10th is one of the more conservative courts. An en banc loss would be as consequential.
