How do you figure?
The court denied cert which kills the appeal forever, not seeing any hopium there. This article isn't about the case moving forward, it's about Sotomayor, Jackson, Kagan not being part of the denial.
But it is curious as to why they would recuse themselves for nothing (with or without a burger). However, if this does makes it's way to the court, and all the liberal justices have recused themselves...then they can blame whatever happens on those nastry conservative leaning judges...either way.
They recused themselves because they were named defendants, so the recusal was absolutely required - this isn’t a “recuse because you might be biased”, the rule against judges hearing cases in which they are defendants or plaintiffs is ironclad.
And there is no “if this does make its way to the court here”. It already did, and the court denied cert. That is the final decision.
