Shoop v. Cassano
Petition for a writ of certiorari denied on June 21, 2022. Justice Thomas, with whom Justice Alito joins, dissents from the denial of certiorari.
Issues: (1) Whether the Supreme Court should summarily reverse the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th
Circuit’s award of habeas relief; and (2) whether, when a three-judge panel clearly errs in
awarding habeas relief, its decision raises questions important enough to justify en banc review.
