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.
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.
