A court of first resort? Tandon v Newsom Amicus Brief by The Becket Fund.pdf

Tandon v Newsom Amicus Brief by The Becket Fund.pdf
So The Becket Fund is disgusted with the attacks by head in the clouds academics who disparage the Supreme Court's emergency grants of stays - generally without opinion or argument - as a "shadow docket.  William Baude ( a conservative) and Stephen Vladeck (a progressive) are, of course, not alone.  Sonia Sotomayor has accused the court of "putting a thumb on the scale" in support of the government's efforts to stem immigration rather than vindicate the Congressional commitment to granting asylum to refugees.
Now the Becket Fund takes the stage to encourage the Supreme Court to bypass the cumbersone ordinary process.
