: How Appealing"Court turns aside test on 'victim impact' videos"
You can access today's Order List, in which the U.S. Supreme Court did not grant review of any new cases, by clicking here.
The denial of review in the victim impact cases produced a statement respecting the denial of the petitions for writs of certiorari written by Justice John Paul Stevens and a dissent from the denial of the petitions for writs of certiorari written by Justice Stephen G. Breyer. Justice David H. Souter also noted that he would have granted certiorari in one of the two cases. Perhaps even more noteworthy, these opinions mark the second time in history that the Court has posted online related video (this time in both RealPlayer and Windows Media Player formats).
Update: In news coverage of today's orders, The Associated Press reports that "Court denies appeal over victim impact evidence" and "Court turns down appeal in sealed case."
