Who writes legislation?

[edit]

There's a statement in the first paragraph that, "the Bush administration has passed legislation ...". I thought Congress did such things. Perhaps this needs re-wording? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lindes (talk • contribs) 06:08, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

rough work

[edit]
  1. redirect Rasul v. Bush


Confusing/should be merged with Boumedieneg

[edit]

As this petition was consolidated with Boumediene v. Bush, I don't think there should be a separate article under this title. Boumediene is used to refer to the 2008 decision, not Al Odah v. US, and to the issues covered in the decision, which applies to all the plaintiffs. Parkwells (talk) 01:09, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I consulted with the Wikiproject on Supreme Court cases regarding this article, as I think it should be merged with Boumediene v. Bush, with which it was consolidated. Here are responses, copied from the TAlk page at the projectParkwells (talk) 17:56, 25 January 2013 (UTC):[reply]
  • My opinion is that if it was consolidated with Boumediene, only that case should show the SCOTUS information, with Al Odah incorporated into the history. If we keep the Al Odah article, it needs to be reduced to the Circuit Court opinion and then linked to the SCOTUS case. I would tend to turn the Al Odah article into a redirect. Of course, this is JMO. GregJackP Boomer! 02:07, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree with Greg above. I believe that's our current practice with these pages, like the healthcare case where there's one page for the single SCOTUS decision, though it was two or three consolidated cases. -- Lord Roem ~ (talk) 03:56, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Federal court structure

[edit]

There was confusion in terms in this article. The habeas corpus petitions were filed with the federal "United States District Court for the District of Columbia". This cannot be referred to as "the D.C. court", as in one example since corrected. The District of Columbia government does have its own court system. But the federal court in the area is the US District Court for [the region] District of Columbia. Cases on appeal go to the "US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia," and, if appealed again and accepted for hearing, to the "US Supreme Court."Parkwells (talk) 01:09, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
