Subject: (Gilmore vs. Ashcroft) 9th Circuit to DOJ: No Secret Justice
Dave,
The 9th Circuit US Court of Appeals rejected a Department of Justice
attempt
to file a secret brief in Gilmore vs. Ashcroft, a case that involves
secret
law.
In a one page order, the Court denied DOJ's motion asking the Court's
permission to file their arguments in secret, allowing only the judges
to
read their full brief. A DOJ motion to suspend the briefing schedule
was
similarly denied.
