US Supreme Court asked to revive proof-of-citizenship plan in Michigan<\/h3>

Todd Spangler, Detroit Free Press<\/svg><\/span><\/p>

On Monday, Americans for Citizen Voting \u2013 Michigan, a group seeking to place a proposal for requiring voters in the state \u201cto prove their citizenship status before voting\u201d on the ballot for the Nov. 3 election, asked the Supreme Court on its interim docket to order \u201cthe Michigan Secretary of State\u2019s office to declare the constitutional amendment proposal proper and order it placed on the November ballot ahead of the Sept. 4 meeting of the Board of State Canvassers to finalize the listing,\u201d according to the Detroit Free Press. The emergency application addresses the board\u2019s Aug. 24 vote on the proposal. \u201c[T]he board deadlocked 2-2 along partisan lines over whether the group had provided enough valid petition signatures to place the proposal before the voters, effectively barring it\u201d from appearing on the ballot. Americans for Citizen Voting claims \u201cthe board waited more than five months to raise questions about the signatures and then relied on a small sample the group does not consider representative of the whole\u201d to make its decision.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Special education access case appealed to Supreme Court<\/h3>

Kara Arundel, K-12 Dive<\/p>

Two Massachusetts families have filed a petition for review with the Supreme Court, asking the justices \u201cto hear their challenge to a state regulation that allows their private school children to access public school special education services but only at a public school or a \u2018neutral\u2019 location,\u201d according to K-12 Dive. \u201cThe families, whose children with disabilities attend Jewish day schools, said in their July 20 petition that the Massachusetts\u2019 policy penalizes private school students who have a constitutional right to attend private schools but who want access to publicly funded special education services. They are asking the high court to determine whether its \u2018unconstitutional conditions doctrine\u2019 means that governments generally may not make a benefit like special education services conditional on surrendering their constitutional right to attend private schools.\u201d K-12 Dive noted that \u201c[t]he case highlights the tension building between those supportive of private school choice programs that use taxpayer funds and those protective of publicly funded services staying in public schools.\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div>

$42 Million Abu Ghraib Jury Verdict Is Overturned on Appeal<\/h3>

Mattathias Schwartz, The New York Times<\/svg><\/span><\/p>

On Friday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit \u201coverturned a landmark jury verdict that found a Virginia contractor liable for the abuse of three Iraqis detained\u201d in Abu Ghraib prison more than 20 years ago, according to The New York Times. The same 4th Circuit panel \u201chad previously upheld the verdict. But that was before the Supreme Court in June set new limits on the federal courts\u2019 jurisdiction over violations of international law\u201d in Cisco Systems, Inc. v. Doe I<\/em>. The panel said \u201cthat the new precedent \u2018effectively overruled\u2019 their previous finding that U.S. courts had jurisdiction over the plaintiffs\u2019 claims through the Alien Tort Statute,\u201d which \u201cgives non-U.S. citizens the right to sue in federal court for some violations of international law.\u201d The former Abu Ghraib prisoners \u201ccould now file a new lawsuit, appeal to the Supreme Court, or ask [for] the case to be heard again by a larger appellate panel.\u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div>

March on Washington renews focus on voting rights after Supreme Court gutting<\/h3>

Adelle M. Banks, Religion News Service<\/p>

A major Supreme Court ruling on voting rights was in the spotlight on Friday at a program commemorating the 63rd anniversary of the March on Washington. Speakers addressed Louisiana v. Callais<\/em>, in which the Supreme Court in April curtailed a key provision of the Voting Rights Act. \u201cThe Callais decision by the Supreme Court shot a bullet in the heart of voting rights, but they don\u2019t understand we\u2019re not going back. We will not let them turn back the hands of time,\u201d said the Rev. Al Sharpton at the event. Similarly, Martin Luther King III, the son of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., \u201cdecried the state of voting rights in America,\u201d according to Religion News Service. \u201cThe fact that we still have to fight to maintain and renew voting rights in this country is beyond abysmal and a truly national disgrace,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Supreme Court allows construction on White House ballroom to continue<\/h3>

By Amy Howe<\/p>

The Supreme Court on Monday paused a ruling by a federal judge in Washington, D.C., that would have halted above-ground construction of the new White House ballroom. In an eight-page, unsigned opinion, the majority emphasized that it was not deciding whether the project was legal. Instead, it stressed, the plaintiff likely lacks a legal right, known as standing, to challenge the project at all.<\/p><\/div>

A Closer Look<\/div>

Roscoe Filburn<\/h3><\/div>

This is the sixth entry in our Closer Look series about famous Supreme Court plaintiffs. Today, we look at Roscoe Filburn, the farmer who challenged the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, which limited how much wheat could be grown on a farmer\u2019s own land. In a landmark decision, the Supreme Court ruled against Filburn, holding that a lack of commercial activity can still allow congressional action under the commerce clause if it undermines interstate commerce.<\/em><\/p>

Roscoe Curtiss Filburn was born on Aug. 2, 1902, in Dayton, Ohio. For five generations, Filburn\u2019s maternal family labored as farmers in Ohio. His maternal grandparents, John and Susannah Smith, farmed 640 acres of land, which was ultimately divided among their seven children. Filburn\u2019s mother, Mary Elizabeth, inherited the family home, 95 acres of farmland, and nine acres of woodland in what is now suburban Dayton.<\/p>

Filburn would continue the family tradition and become a farmer himself. He grew crops and raised livestock. Filburn\u2019s farm was apparently popular, selling fresh milk and eggs to about 75 customers per day. Additionally, Filburn grew winter wheat, which he would harvest in the summer. Filburn would then sell part of his yield but also use it to feed his cattle and poultry, make flour for personal use, and produce seed for the following season.<\/p>

Congress passed the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938 to replace its predecessor, the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933. The AAA of 1938 was enacted in an effort to help prop up the struggling agricultural industry, which was dealing with crop surpluses and reduced income. Under the legislation, to control crop surpluses, the secretary of agriculture would create a national allotment of acres that could be used to produce wheat. The allotment would then be appropriated to states and ultimately to individual farmers.<\/p>

Filburn\u2019s allotment in 1940 was for 11.1 acres of wheat, but he planted 23 acres of it. By planting past his allotment, Filburn cultivated an extra 239 bushels of wheat. Administrators of the AAA fined Filburn 49 cents per excess bushel that he grew and placed a lien of $117.11 on his entire wheat yield.<\/p>

Filburn challenged the excess penalty in court and a panel of three district court judges sided with him. Claude R. Wickard, the secretary of agriculture, appealed the decision directly to the Supreme Court. At the court, Filburn claimed that the wheat he grew would be entirely for personal use and did not implicate interstate commerce, and the fines \u2013 which Congress justified under the Constitution\u2019s commerce clause \u2013 could thus not be enforced against him.<\/p>

In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court sided against Filburn. \u201cThat appellee’s own contribution to the demand for wheat may be trivial by itself is not enough to remove him from the scope of federal regulation where, as here, his contribution, taken together with that of many others similarly situated, is far from trivial,\u201d Justice Robert Jackson wrote in his majority opinion.<\/p>

The decision remains controversial to this day. Critics of Filburn<\/em>argue that it gives Congress near unlimited power to enact regulations under the commerce clause. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Supreme Court appeared ready to reduce the commerce clause\u2019s reach, striking down two statutes as exceeding Congress\u2019 power. Although it has not invalidated a law on these grounds since, in 2012 the Supreme Court determined the Affordable Care Act\u2019s individual mandate could not be upheld on commerce clause grounds, but ultimately upheld the mandate under Congress\u2019 taxing power.<\/p>

As for Filburn, he returned to private life after his Supreme Court case and rarely spoke about it. In the 1950s, he changed the spelling of his last name from Filburn to Filbrun, although the reason is unknown. (Family records show that the family last name was originally \u201cFilbrun\u201d before the family immigrated to the United States from Germany.)<\/p>

During the 1950s, Filbrun purchased Beverly Shop, a woman\u2019s beauty store, which his wife and daughter managed.<\/p>

In 1966, Filbrun convinced the other successors to his grandparent\u2019s 640-acre farm to collectively sell the land to developers. Much of the land became the site of the Salem Mall, which operated from 1966 until 2005. Today, the site of that building is being redeveloped as a hub for businesses. Filbrun\u2019s property also became home to a residential subdivision and his nine acres of forest was developed into commercial real estate. Filbrun died on Oct. 4, 1987, at the age of 85.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

SCOTUS Quote<\/h2>

JUSTICE ALITO: \u201cWell, if they\u2019re not your witnesses, then they\u2019re \u2013 they\u2019re Atlantic Marine\u2019s witnesses. So why should … the inconvenience of Atlantic Marine\u2019s witnesses be a factor that weighs against Atlantic Marine\u2019s position that the case should be tried in Norfolk?\u201d<\/p>

MR. ALLENSWORTH: \u201cThey were neither Atlantic Marine’s witnesses, nor our witnesses. They were nonparty witnesses \u2026\u201d<\/p>

JUSTICE SCALIA: \u201cJust volunteer witnesses? Are they just going to walk in the courtroom and say, I’d \u2013 I\u2019d like to testify?\u201d<\/p>
