      Check out the "typo" in Gorsuch's opinion for Court today in SAS, where "recently" means "five minutes from now."

      ??? Only use of "recently" I can find in opinion refers to actions by Congress several years back. What did I miss?

      NVM - found it. But now I'm really confused because Court handed down Oil States first this morning.

      Indeed, and out of the usual order, as I tweeted earlier: https://twitter.com/steve_vladeck/status/988781483677704192 … So Gorsuch was actually correct, although I'm surprised the Court bucked its traditional order...

      Steve VladeckVerified account @steve_vladeck
      #SCOTUS delivered the first two opinions today out of its regular order, with Thomas going _before_ Gorsuch. I suspect that's because SAS (the Gorsuch opinion) was largely dependent upon Oil States... But still, I can't remember the last time that this happened...

      We were all very confused when the Chief announced "Justice Gorsuch" after Justice Thomas had read. But, yeah, it definitely appeared that Oil States had to be released first, and they didn't want to hold SAS?

      If I remember correctly, there were clues in whichever of Hollingsworth v. Perry and Windsor came out first about what the other one held. So maybe this is a reaction to concerns about such sleuthing?

      Replying to @steve_vladeck @chrisgeidner @jadler1969

      No, I think it's simply a matter of having to switch because the Gorsuch opinion reads "Recently, the Court upheld" instead of "Today, the Court upholds." Thomas's OS opinion was probably supposed to be out last week and got held up.

      That makes sense. Here was the part from the Chief's dissent in Windsor that gave us the result in Perry ahead of time:pic.twitter.com/fOasjhjgJN

      Yup--I was in SCOTUS cafeteria w/others who worked on the Dellinger "no standing" brief, and our jaws hit the floor when we read that in Windsor. The problem today, however, is that Gorsuch's opinion actually assumes CT's had already issued (which was likely the original plan).

      And there was originally supposed to be a decision day last Wednesday that got scrapped, lending further credence to the “Oil States got held up” theory (on which, to be clear, nothing of any real significance actually turns).

          Did this happen with Gratz/Grutter, or the 10 commandments cases?

          I wasn't as obsessive a #SCOTUS watcher back then (Gratz & Grutter came down when I was a 2L), so have no idea. But it's odd that they'd break what seems like a strong norm for order of opinions just to avoid such a silly (and vanishing) "problem."

          I was a 1L. And, yes, I agree! Here's my totally random and new brainstormed theory: Maybe Gorsuch's dissent in Oil States is what held Oil States up?!
