“US court: No immigration checks at Ala. schools.” The Associated Press has a report that begins, “A federal appeals court issued a ruling Friday that temporarily blocked parts of an Alabama law requiring schools to check the immigration status of students but let stand a provision that allows police to detain immigrants that are suspected of being in the country illegally.”

“Client and her lawyer may face sanctions from the Second Circuit for having pursued appeal from dismissal of lawsuit against high-ranking federal officials alleging ‘a fantastical alternative history’ of 9/11 attacks”: That’s the title of a post that I published on April 27, 2011 reporting on a ruling that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit had issued that day.

Today; the Second Circuit issued this follow-up per curiam opinion, which indicates that the Second Circuit may still have even more to say about the matter in the future.
