136 S. Ct. 329; 193 L. Ed. 2d 223; 84 U.S.L.W. 3195; 2015 U.S. LEXIS 6507 (Supreme Court Reporter)

Missud v. Court California

Opinion of the Court

Petition for writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of California. Because the court lacks a quorum, 28 U.S.C. § 1, and since the only qualified Justices are of the opinion that the case cannot be heard and determined at the next Term of the Court, the judgment is affirmed under 28 U.S.C. § 2109, which provides that under these circumstances "the court shall enter its order affirming the judgment of the court from which the case was brought for review with the same effect as upon affirmance by an equally divided court."

THE CHIEF JUSTICE, Justice SCALIA, Justice KENNEDY, Justice THOMAS, and Justice ALITO took no part in the consideration or decision of this petition.
