: SCOTUSBLOGCourt takes no action on death case
By Akin Gump Supreme Court Practice Group
The Supreme Court, issuing its first round of summer orders, took no action on Monday on a request to reconsider its ruling in Kennedy v. Louisiana (07-343), barring the death penalty for the crime of child rape. Similarly, it did not act on a rehearing plea in a pair of cases involving the U.S. military’s power to turn over to Iraq two citizens charged with crimes in that country (Munaf v. Geren, 06-1666, and Geren v. Omar, 07-394).
Although the Court could act on those cases at any time, the next scheduled release of orders on such matters is Monday, Aug. 18.
