  11. Offering extensive *reasoning* or *explanation* [judicial opinions], they argued, would risk locking the court into a position that might not turn out to be its final view.

  16. #SCOTUS has so far issued emergency orders in about 20 cases involving the #Trump admin’s policies. In at least 7 of those orders, the majority offered no reasoning for its decision.

    At public events, some SCOTUS justices have defended their use of the emergency docket as a legitimate response to the increase in swift presidential policy-making by #ExecutiveOrder, as opposed to [the proper way of] #legislation passed through #Congress.

  21. At a hearing in Sept, Judge James A. Wynn Jr. of the US Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit said his court was “out here flailing” as it tried to apply vague emergency rulings from #SCOTUS that left #judges “in limbo.” Ruling on a different case, Judge Allison D. Burroughs of the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts noted that the emergency orders “have not been models of clarity.”
