Change in October calendar

The Supreme Court on Monday released a new calendar for oral argument in the October sitting.  The only change is that the argument in Oregon v. Ice (07-901) has been moved up one day. Instead of being heard at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 15, it will be heard at the same hour on Tuesday, Oct. 14.  The revised calendar is here.  The case tests whether consecutive sentences imposed by a judge violate the right to a jury trial.
