Petition of the day

The petition of the day is:

Clapper v. Amnesty International USA (Granted )

Docket: 11-1025
Issue(s): Whether respondents lack Article III standing to seek prospective relief because they proffered no evidence that the United States would imminently acquire their international communications using 50 U.S.C. 1881a-authorized surveillance and did not show that an injunction prohibiting Section 1881a-authorized surveillance would likely redress their purported injuries.
