Could You Have Stopped This? Vegas Shooting Analysis with Attorneys on Retainer

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Rumor?

I heard from one of my partners that Nevada wants to pull away from the 9th Circus, I mean Circuit, Court.

He said we're going to form a 12th circuit and handle Nevada, Arizona, and Utah.

Anybody else heard anything?

I should have just done some research before I posted the last message

The U.S. House of Representatives voted 205-194 on October 5, 2004 to split the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which is the largest in the United States, into three parts. Hawaii, Guam, the Northern Marianas and California would remain in the 9th Circuit (based in San Francisco and Los Angeles). One of the new Circuits would be the 12th including Arizona, Nevada, Idaho and and Montana (based in Las Vegas and Phoenix). The other would be the 13th including Washington, Oregon and Alaska (based in Portland and Seattle). The bill would also create 58 new judgeships (7 in the new 9th Circuit designed by its Republican sponsors to make that court less liberal). The bill, S. 878 (with amendments incorporating HR 4247) failed in the U.S. Senate.

That would be VERY good if it were to happen, talk about neutering the 9th circuit.
