#9thCircuit

2025-02-20

Wednesday’s ruling marks the first time an appeals court has materially weighed in on #Trump’s #BirthrightCitizenship order, which has come under 10 lawsuits across the country. Though the case will continue before the #9thCircuit, the #DOJ could now seek emergency relief from #SCOTUS.

A federal appeals court Wednesday evening declined the #Trump admin’s request to partially revive the president’s #ExecutiveOrder restricting #BirthrightCitizenship.

The #DOJ asked the #9thCircuit Court of Appeals to immediately limit a district judge’s ruling, one of multiple indefinitely blocking Trump’s order nationwide, to only the individual plaintiffs who sued in an underlying case.

No penalties when deputies share a woman’s nudes after illegal phone search

Hayley Olson took a trip out of state. In Oregon, she ran a legal marijuana dispensary, but she was stopped by Idaho state police and arrested for marijuana possession.

She agreed to a search, and Idaho police made an image of her cell phone.

Grant County Sheriff Glenn Palmer obtained a copy from Idaho, claiming to be concerned that the deputy whom Olson was dating might somehow be implicated. Grant County Attorney Jim Carpenter decided to look through the image, using tools from digital forensics company #Cellebrite.

Olson sued both men for unlawful search & seizure under the #FourthAmendment.

#9thCircuit judges lambasted the behavior of the Oregon authorities, but found that Palmer was exempt from penalties because he had not conducted the search. Carpenter was found to have “qualified immunity” from prosecution as a government employee.

Opinion: Reopening Uber’s challenge to California labor law is just the beginning

"In a stunning decision Friday that departs from nearly 90 years of Supreme Court decisions, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has allowed a constitutional challenge to Assembly Bill 5, the 2019 California law meant to protect low-wage workers."

"The 9th Circuit...dismissed John Eastman’s appeal of U.S. District Judge David O. Carter’s latest order in the Jan. 6 Committee’s bid for his Chapman University emails.

The 11-sentence order also rejects Eastman’s request to vacate Carter’s order and rejects Eastman’s post-filing request to file exhibits under seal, giving him three weeks to withdraw them from the docket before the clerk makes them available for public viewing."

Unalienable, Except for Those People

Last week, the 9th Circuit upheld a federal law prohibiting an undocumented immigrant from possess a firearm. The ruling in U.S. v. Torres went largely unnoticed among the politicos usually vocal about laws which restrict the right to bear arms. The NRA made no statement about it; there was no Twitter post by Dana Loesch,
