June 2007 Discretionary-Review Grants
Posted by Trevor on June 26th, 2007 toIn the Pipeline
At its June, 2007 Court Conference, the SCOKY granted discretionary review to 7 cases, which are listed below (along with links to the COA’s opinion, where available):
Holt v. Commonwealth (2006-SC-0391-DG)
Triple Crown Subdivision Homeowners Association, Inc. v. Oberst (2006-SC-0934-DG)
Early v. Oldham County Board of Education (No Opinion Rendered by COA; Case Dismissed by Order)(2007-SC-0008-DG)
Reinhardt v. Mudd (2007-SC-0201-DG)
Justice v. Hall (2007-SC-0215-DG)
Porterfield v. Renaker (2007-SC-0223-DG)
Jenkins v. Commonwealth (2007-SC-0248-DG)
Moore Pontiac, Buick, GMC, Inc. v. Scott (2007-SC-0282-DG)
In its June renditions, the Court resolved 6 DR cases (all by Opinion) leaving it with its smallest-to-date monthly “DR-grant-deficit” of just a single case. For the year, the SCOKY’s cumulative “DR-deficit” stands at 32 cases. Historically, the SCOKY has made a substantial dent in its DR-cases in the August renditions. (Six weeks of writing time uninterrupted by a momentum killing “reading week” followed by a Court Conference week allows the Court to really “crank” out opinions.). As such, we’ll have to check in and see what the numbers look like in August.
