*EDITOR’S NOTE: This “daily” stuff has now officially become “more or less — maybe once a week, anyway.”
For background on the immigration issue, please see this bulletin and this follow-up, both by Will Krasnow and Jeanette Phelan of our Immigration Practice Group. The oral argument before a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit will take place by telephone today starting at 3 p.m. Pacific Time and 6 p.m. Eastern Time. A half hour per side.
The panel consists of a Carter appointee, a G.W. Bush appointee, and an Obama appointee. Not that that necessarily means anything.
The Ninth Circuit offers live streaming of oral arguments. If you’d like to listen in real time, here is the link – should be interesting!
