Lol health!
Sure there could have been thousands of reasons. don’t forget 3 justices voted to hear it. I knew a majority wouldnt’ but I could have been wrong (in whcih case we can quibble If I lied, or was mistaken)
But I was right, the case was not heard
you provide an excellent defintion of heard/hearing:
““Any proceeding before a Judge or other magistrate, w/o a jury in which evidence and/or argument is presented to determine some issue of fact or both issues of fact and law. Etc.””
YES! nailed it “….in which evidence and/or argument is presented …” EXACTLY right. A confrence in which the judges discuss among themselves whether to accept the case (whcih is what happened Feb 22), with no evidence or arguments presented. Is NOT a hearing.
It was originally scheduled for Feb 19. Have a look at SCOTUS’s calendar 2/19 was NOT an argument day (argument days marked in red) it was a conference day (marked in green) There were NO arguments there was no evidence presented.
According to the Defitnion YOU provided it was not a hearing.
Hopefullly Health, if you have the tiem to read the correct defitnion of hearing provided by Health, you will see it says exactly what I have been saying. and not as Health has been wrngly claiming that the case was heard.
And again, to belabor the point, you said I was a liar for saying it would be dismissed as moot, so even if a hearing took place (and none did see the defitnion provided by Health) you should still apologize for calling me a liar, when I so clearly told the truth
I think this is my favorite conversation with you yet.
