#SCOTUS denies cert in Elmore v. Holbrook, a capital case out of Washington. Justice Sotomayor, joined by Ginsburg, dissents.

Reminder: Conservatives' big win post-Scalia was Utah v. Strieff. Breyer joined the conservatives in 4th Am case.https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/supreme-court-weakens-protections-against-unconstitutional-p?utm_term=.wn7qyO7Bz3#.jeL6j70rgP …

In any event, that's what I'm thinking about in Elmore today. Not surprising to see Breyer staying away from Sotomayor's dissent here.

Maybe Kagan voted for cert but didn't join Sotomayor's dissent b/c she didn't think summary reversal was appropriate — we don't know!

Justices don't release their votes on cert or stays. They can pen dissents, but don't have to do so, so we often don't know the vote.
