#SCOTUS did, however, grant requests to hear eight cases, including former VA Gov. Bob McDonnell's case (question 1 only).

-
#SCOTUS still could agree to hear the Obama administration's immigration appeal after the justice's next conference, set for Jan. 22. -
We are, though, reaching the time in which
#SCOTUS finishes up agreeing to hear cases this term. After then, grants wait until Oct for arg. -
Obviously, Obama admin has pressed for the justices to hear the case this term — giving Obama ability to implement the actions after ruling.

(Should the administration win at SCOTUS.)

As for Gov. McDonnell's case, here is the question
#SCOTUS agreed to consider:pic.twitter.com/DXN6GOrRMJ

No
#SCOTUS action on V.L. v. E.L., the same-sex adoption case out of Alabama, either. Ct previously granted stay:http://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/supreme-court-grants-relief-to-lesbian-mother-in-alabama-cas#.gmbdXNLGqv … -
Could a
#SCOTUS summary reversal be possible in V.L. v. E.L.? I'm increasingly thinking so. -
As for the immigration case brought by Texas against Obama admin, we wait. I'd say it's still likely that the justices take up the case.
-
Accepting immigration case next week cuts it close, but it could still be heard this term — and, of course,
#SCOTUS does what it wants. -
Also: Keep in mind, all eight cases granted today had previously been relisted (
#SCOTUS's apparent new practice), as immig case now will be. -
* = new, as in, new in over the past few years

@chrisgeidner@BuzzFeedNews what does that mean? -
@alaidevi@chrisgeidner This means that, unless SCOTUS picks it up later, it is dead in the water.
