Cases reach the Supreme Court almost exclusively through a formal request called a writ of certiorari. The Court receives thousands of petitions yearly but is highly selective, taking fewer than 1% of cases.

The process of taking up a case involves several key steps:

-The Petition: The losing party in a lower federal appellate court or a state supreme court files a legal document (a cert petition) asking the Supreme Court to review the lower court's decision.

-The Rule of Four: The Justices review the petitions and hold private votes. Under the Court's custom known as the "Rule of Four," it takes the votes of at least four of the nine Justices to agree to hear a case.

-Priorities for Acceptance: The Court does not act as a regular appeals court that simply corrects mistakes. It generally only accepts cases of national significance. Justices are particularly likely to take a case if there is a "circuit split"—meaning different federal appeals courts have interpreted a federal law or the Constitution differently.

The appeal to the SCOTUS of the rejection of the redistricting referendum had almost zero chance. I don't blame them for trying. It's not the SCOTUS's job to get involved in intra-state disputes like that.

No one ever accepts the vote as the final say. Instead they immediately look for ways to circumvent the vote, change the rules, or invalidate. In the case of VA, Democrats chose to ignore their Constitution in order to put something on the ballot in the most confusing terms possible. Begged the VA SC to not rule until after the election, and now cry because something they knew up front wasn't going to go their way, didn't go their way.

It's Democrats taking "there's no such thing as bad publicity" to an extreme.

I have represented freight brokers in the past. At their most basic level, all freight brokers really do is connect freight carriers with businesses who need freight hauled. At least in my experience, freight brokers do not really vet the carriers except to require proof of all relevant state and federal licensing. It is instead incumbent upon the businesses to vet the carriers.

The only thing I vet is that the motor carrier number matches what’s on the bol sent to me by the broker. My contract is with the broker not the freight carrier.

What’s happen recently is a scam where the freight carrier accepting the load will then sub it out to another, less reputable carrier. Pretty much brokering the already brokered load.

If you load one of those guys you have pretty much no recourse when your load goes missing.

Because that is most certainly not how it works in my experience.

The only relationship existing between my brokers and businesses like yours is permitting the businesses access to the software we provide for locating suitable carriers.

They email me back when they secure the carrier and tell me to please verify that the driver and MC number match the email and the BOL they sent me.

I’m paying the broker, not the carrier. I assume my legal arrangemrnt is with the broker and the driver is acting as their agent.

She was being honored at my kid's school at the annual fair they hold. She allegedly was very helpful with getting permits and shit. Blah blah blah. So I'm walking across the grounds and I see people talking to her. Had three choices.

1. Walk that way, get introduced to her and feign interest and quickly walk away.

2. Walk that way, get introduced to her and lose my shit at her making a scene and making the school look bad.

3. Immediately change course, veer 90 degrees to the right and take the long way around to get where I needed to go.

Call me what you will but I chose 3. I think it was the best choice over all. I wasn't going to make a scene but I'll be damned if I'm going to pretend to like this pile of garbage.

Also, her kid started at my kid's little league the year after my kid left. Good thing too. I'd have a restraining order against me if we were still there. At the little league I would NOT hold back. Fuck that ****.

Nithya V. Raman is an American urban planner, activist, and politician serving as the Los Angeles city councilmember for the 4th district since 2020. Raman, a member of the Democratic Party and the Democratic Socialists of America, defeated incumbent councilmember David Ryu in 2020 and was re-elected in 2024.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nithya_Raman

Didn't know the name, but I knew that there was at least one more person in the LA mayoral race.

This woman is 44 years old, born in India, studied at Harvard/MIT for maybe six years, then returned to India for a while; back to the US at age 31 or so? In any case, has worked for (or been elected) to various government organizations in LA ever since she returned.

First elective office was 7 years ago, LA City Council.

So, she's going to the left of the current (absentee) mayor?? I know the actor is far to the right.

----------------------------------------------

Totally (kinda) off-topic: LA has a mayor who's on another continent accepting an award during a huge wildfire. NY has an avowed Communist, who's apparently already out of money vis-a-vis those pie in the sky campaign promises.

And then there's Brandon Shitehead....
