New news

The Supreme Court's on-line docket indicates that on 20 March the SG filed his opposition to the New v. Gates cert petition, No. 06-691 -- which includes an issue asking the Supremes to resolve the correct scope of review for Article III courts' collateral review of court-martial convictions. We previously discussed that cert petition here, among other places.

Unfortunately the opp doesn't yet appear to be posted on the SG's web site. If it goes up tomorrow, I'll post a link. But after that I'll be off-line until Wednesday night. If it's not up tomorrow, perhaps one of the other contriubtors can check on Monday and Tuesday.
