Chute v. Nifty-Fifties, Inc.
Supreme Court of the United States · Decided October 2, 2017
138 S. Ct. 298; 199 L. Ed. 2d 17 (Supreme Court Reporter)

Chute v. Nifty-Fifties, Inc.

Opinion of the Court

Because the Court lacks a quorum, 28 U.S.C. § 1, and since the qualified Justice is 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."
