Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early twentieth century, the Rule of Four has required the assent of at least four justices for a certiorari petition to receive full review by the Supreme Court. This rule changed during the 1970s, when justices began to cast "Join-3" votes. Despite the significance of these votes, scholars have simply treated them as votes to Grant review. We analyze the conditions under which justices cast Join-3 votes and determine whether it is appropriate to treat them as Grant votes. Our results show that collegiality and uncertainty drive the decision to cast Join-3 votes and that it is inappropriate to pool Join-3 and Grant votes together. We discuss alternative coding practices for agenda-setting scholars.
Download or read book Deciding to Decide written by H. W. Perry and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the nearly five thousand cases presented to the Supreme Court each year, less than 5 percent are granted review. How the Court sets its agenda, therefore, is perhaps as important as how it decides cases. H. W. Perry, Jr., takes the first hard look at the internal workings of the Supreme Court, illuminating its agenda-setting policies, procedures, and priorities as never before. He conveys a wealth of new information in clear prose and integrates insights he gathered in unprecedented interviews with five justices. For this unique study Perry also interviewed four U.S. solicitors general, several deputy solicitors general, seven judges on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, and sixty-four former Supreme Court law clerks. The clerks and justices spoke frankly with Perry, and his skillful analysis of their responses is the mainspring of this book. His engaging report demystifies the Court, bringing it vividly to life for general readers--as well as political scientists and a wide spectrum of readers throughout the legal profession. Perry not only provides previously unpublished information on how the Court operates but also gives us a new way of thinking about the institution. Among his contributions is a decision-making model that is more convincing and persuasive than the standard model for explaining judicial behavior.

Book Synopsis The Separation of Powers and Supreme Court Agenda Setting by : Ryan J. Owens
Download or read book The Separation of Powers and Supreme Court Agenda Setting written by Ryan J. Owens and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study employs the first systematic, empirical analysis that relies on archival data to examine whether the separation of powers influences justices' agenda votes. It spatially models how justices set the Court's agenda under a sincere approach as well as an SOP approach and compares the competing expectations derived therefrom. The results suggest that legislative and executive preferences fail to influence justices' votes. Across every model tested, the data show justices uninfluenced by the separation of powers. These results provide a strong rejoinder to SOP models, since the Court's agenda stage is the most likely stage of the decision making process to show signs of an SOP effect.

Book Synopsis An Alternative Perspective on Supreme Court Agenda Setting in a System of Shared Powers by : Ryan J. Owens
Download or read book An Alternative Perspective on Supreme Court Agenda Setting in a System of Shared Powers written by Ryan J. Owens and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study builds on existing empirical separation of powers work to determine whether legislative and executive preferences constrain the Supreme Court's agenda. Its contribution comes in the form of a different modeling perspective regarding how the location of the status quo conditionally impacts the separation of powers dynamic -- namely, whether a judicial improvements over the status quo will avoid legislative overrides. The data suggest two things. First, the location of the status quo vis-a-vis key pivots does not appear to factor in to the Court's agenda calculations. Regardless of whether the Court was improving the status quo policy or making it worse for Congress and the president, the Court does not appear to consider legislative overrides. Second, these data more broadly suggest that the Court unlikely plays the separation of powers game with Congress and the president.

Download or read book The Agenda written by Ian Millhiser and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 2011, when Republicans gained control of the House of Representatives, until the present, Congress enacted hardly any major legislation outside of the tax law President Trump signed in 2017. In the same period, the Supreme Court dismantled much of America's campaign finance law, severely weakened the Voting Rights Act, permitted states to opt-out of the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion, weakened laws protecting against age discimination and sexual and racial harassment, and held that every state must permit same-sex couples to marry. This powerful unelected body, now controlled by six very conservative Republicans, has and will become the locus of policymaking in the United States. Ian Millhiser, Vox's Supreme Court correspondent, tells the story of what those six justices are likely to do with their power. It is true that the right to abortion is in its final days, as is affirmative action. But Millhiser shows that it is in the most arcane decisions that the Court will fundamentally reshape America, transforming it into something far less democratic, by attacking voting rights, dismantling and vetoing the federal administrative state, ignoring the separation of church and state, and putting corporations above the law. The Agenda exposes a radically altered Supreme Court whose powers extend far beyond transforming any individual right--its agenda is to shape the very nature of America's government, redefining who gets to have legal rights, who is beyond the reach of the law, and who chooses the people who make our laws.
