Murphy v. Sloan
Petition for certiorari denied on January 26, 2015
Issue: Whether the majority of United States courts should continue to interpret the term "habitual residence" in the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction in a manner that directly conflicts with the global consensus outside the United States, the views of the Third, Sixth and Eighth Circuits, and the plain meaning of the term.
