Can someone who understands such things explain this to me. Sounds like it can actually go back to the 6th and be reversed?
"The applications for stays presented to JUSTICE KAVANAUGH and by him referred to the Court are granted. OSHA’s COVID–19 Vaccination and Testing; Emergency Temporary Standard, 86 Fed. Reg. 61402, is stayed pending disposition of the applicants’ petitions for review in the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit and disposition of the applicants’ petitions for writs of certiorari, if such writs are timely sought. Should the petitions for writs of certiorari be denied, this order shall terminate automatically. In the event the petitions for writs of certiorari are granted, the order shall terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court.
If you want it in a short word you can understand, this is just general appeals process.
Basically, it says:
"If you don't file the paperwork to settle the appellate process of this decision in the Sixth Circuit court, you forfeit your ability to do anything else."
From the lower courts to the top, you're actually nesting the decision. Every time you appeal, you shoot a little part of your case off to a higher court. Once you reach the top, if the lower courts don't come to a sensical decision, it gets a final decision and then all the courts you've gone through along the way have to sign off and affirm that the case is closed and shouldn't be bothered with anymore since there is nothing left to discuss.
It effectively stops anyone from monkeying with this case and injecting other junk into an already resolved case.
So they can file more paperwork,in the 6th, to keep this thing going ?
Not really. The upper court's decision takes precedent.
This is basically just Russian nesting dolls coming back together again.
It's just a rubber-stamp process each court now has to take to make sure no one else is gonna try something else.
It's like a DnD turn where the Game Master asks the player, "Is that the end of your turn?" and the player says "yes."
It means it's a done deal, and it also means other cases that want to cite the FINAL decisions in this case can now do so without fear of a future alteration to the ruling.
It's just process at this point.
If the appealing party does fuck up, though, and not file the paperwork, then they basically forfeit any and all chances of redressing this case under the pretense of another cases' circumstances. That would be mad KEKs, but absolutely unlikely to happen.
PS. I'm not a lawyer. I just know too much and have no ability to turn my brain off. I'm a candle burning as bright as a blowtorch, and this baby's brain is as burnt as toast getting a tan on the surface of the sun. Can't stop won't stop, unless it's nap time, that is, which is all the time for my sorry butt.
