Talk:US Supreme Court dismisses appeal on Obama's citizenship

This is the first Obama citizenship case which was decided by the US S. Court, making it the most newsworthy, since the others are in the lower courts, and about 2 are still pending. Please help me in the review of this landmark Obama issue. Thanks.--Florentino Floro (talk) 12:55, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

This was posted on Tuesday. The supreme court posted an official docket online on Monday saying the Cort Wrotnowski case was submitted by Justice Scalia to conference for Friday, December 12. Why is this critical information left out? The title should read US Supreme Court dismisses one case, but sends another to conference, on Obama's citizenship.

 * Both cases were sent for conference, but the Denofrio case was not granted cert at its conference on Dec. 5th. The second case wont go before conference until this Friday, Dec. 12th. 208.15.90.2 21:06, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I edited this article to include the update:The Washington Times
Since, it is just 2 hours that we have a reliable source aside from the 2 S.C. Docket html, I decided to add this:
 * In "Philip J. Berg v. Barack Obama, et al.", the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit's Justice Souter denied the injunction on December 9.
 * In the new case of "Cort Wrotnowski v. Susan Bysiewicz, Connecticut Secretary of State," Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg denied Wrotnowski's injunction application, which was thereafter refiled and assigned to Justice Antonin Scalia. The case was distributed for Conference of December 12. The Washington Times reported that Wrotnowski, a prodigious author and a health-food store owner in Greenwich, Conn. raised the issue of "whether the British citizenship of Mr. Obama's father makes the president-elect ineligible to assume the office."
 * As of December 9, we have no sources on whether Berg's application had been considered by the US S. Court.
