Here is my report at Law Dork: https://t.co/Comvj2XbbQ

[Chris “Law Dork” Geidner @chrisgeidner]

BREAKING: SCOTUS keeps the Missouri 2022 congressional map in effect for this election in an order that criticizes the Eighth Circuit's actions in the case. The five page, per curiam — unsigned order — came with no noted dissents.

Here is the opinion: https://t.co/ieikchgpBK

[Chris “Law Dork” Geidner @chrisgeidner]

BREAKING: SCOTUS, for a third time, rejects efforts to upend Missouri’s congressional map.

Criticizing the Eighth Circuit’s actions, the Supreme Court’s order stated, “Given this Court’s two prior orders in this litigation, our conclusion that this was error should come as no surprise.”

The per curiam opinion notes that, given the timing, this will only involve "individualized inquiries" for this election.

BREAKING: DOJ goes to SCOTUS to re-start rapid third-country removals.

This is the third time DOJ has taken lower court actions in the case to the justices. The first two times, the justices granted DOJ’s request — allowing the deportations to balloon.

Here is Onder’s response: https://t.co/XNmrDp7NUm

And here is Missouri’s response: https://t.co/rh1ff0YzJq

Both oppose the stay request.

[Chris “Law Dork” Geidner @chrisgeidner]

If you missed the news overnight, we’re back at SCOTUS with the Missouri maps mess that the lower federal courts have kept going this week. Justice Kavanaugh has called for a quick response by 2p today to last night’s request from those seeking to end this and keep the 2022 map in place. https://t.co/FU1TpEaUwJ

[Chris “Law Dork” Geidner @chrisgeidner]

Deleted and fixed the time!

[Chris “Law Dork” Geidner @chrisgeidner]

Sorry, I don't know where at got 10a in my pre-caffeine, little-sleep brain, but the response is not due 'til 2p.

[I think I kept writing 10 last night because of SCOTUS's September 10 order and got confused at some point. It's right in my report. Apologies for the confusion.]
