New conference docketed

Make a note on your calendar on 20 April. That is the day the Supremes will consider whether to grant cert in New v. Gates, 06-691. Also make a note on your calendar to check the Supreme Court's orders around 1000 on Monday, 23 April. That's when we will probably learn whether the Supremes have granted cert in New -- which seems to have the greatest likelihood of a cert grant of any military justice petition in years.
