Baker's Dozen: 100 Post Edition
I suppose I should be excited; I've finally created 100 posts on Vocal. But... I'm not excited, or even remotely happy at hitting that long-awaited mark. If anything, I'm disheartened, frustrated, and really questioning just how much longer I will be on the site, or in what capacity if I do stay. Host of reasons, but not the main topic of this piece. Though, in rereading, I did put a number of jabs in; I've been chomping at the bit to write out exactly why I'm so fed up writing here for nearly a year. Soon; but not yet.

Why Texas judges have so much power right now
Commodity is passing in Texas. Since 2021, there have been separate suits, in civil quarter courthouses each over the state, in which Texas has sued the civil government. Let's look at just one, in Amarillo, about immigration. The judge in this case- there was no jury- ruled that the Biden administration had to continue a Trump policy called" Remain in Mexico" that keeps shelter campaigners out of the country. The Biden administration ultimately got that decision reversed, but it took nearly a whole time. And as they awaited for the Supreme Court to do that, they also had to observe the decision and keep shelter campaigners out of the country. All because of this one judge's ruling. And in fact, the Texas Attorney General's office, which filed the case, had sought this judge out specifically. And over the coming two times, they would bring him cases against the civil government again, and again, and again. And he is not alone. Texas has gone back to this judge again and again too. You are not supposed to be suitable to pick which judge hears your case. But in Texas, you can. It's called" judge shopping." It's only possible in a place like Texas. And it's helped make Texas into a important armament for changing how effects work far and wide in the country. Each state in the US has at least one civil quarter court. Texas has four. They are the nethermost position of the civil court system. Federal courts substantially hear cases involving public laws. And civil judges are appointed by the chairman. There are over 600 quarter judges across all of these courts. So several judges in each court. And generally the judge who hears your case is chosen aimlessly. STEVE VLADECK Randomness is a critical principle because the idea is that the judicial system is supposed to be, on the whole, a neutral arbitrator of legal controversies. But the US is big. There are a lot of big countries. And indeed when a state has multiple civil court sections, some of those sections are still really big. Like this one, the Northern District of Texas. still, If you are inLubbock.and your case gets aimlessly assigned to a judge in Dallas, that's a five- hour drive to get to court. So incompletely to break for that, numerous sections are farther subdivided into multiple divisions, and each generally has its own courthouse. But different sections have different rules for which case goes to which division. For illustration, over in the Central District of California, there are three divisions, with clear rules meant to make sure that cases stay original. But in the Northern District of Texas, those rules are not so strict. It's much easier to file a case in whatever division you choose. Same with the other Texas sections. Then is where that becomes a problem. The Southern District of Texas has 28 judges for seven divisions. But for utmost of the last two times, two of those divisions have had just one active judge each. Then in the Victoria Division, that is been judge Drew Tipton. And in the Galveston Division, it's Judge Jeffrey Brown. And this happens each over the state. In the Northern District, this judge, Matthew Kacsmaryk, is the only judge in the Amarillo division. And Judge ReedO'Connor is the only one for the Wichita Falls Division. And that means that if you choose to file your action in one of those places, you know who the judge will be. So you get a situation where, over two times, the Texas attorney general lines eight separate suits against the Biden administration in Victoria, because they knew Judge Tipton would hear them. Cases about the border wall, the minimal pay envelope, gun laws. VLADECK Judge Tipton had sided with the state of Texas, had embraced a enough broad view of why Texas could sue in the first place, and had issued civil injunctions barring the Biden administration from carrying out its programs. So, yeah, I mean, I do not suppose there was much of a riddle about why they would choose Judge Tipton. The alternate thing that makes Texas unique is where it sits in this map. still, If the losing side of a quarter judge's decisionappeals.it goes up to one of the 12 Appeals Courts, also called the circuit courts. A decision appealed from there goes up to the Supreme Court. And all Texas quarter courts report up to the Fifth Circuit Court, which, with a big maturity of judges appointed by Democratic chairpersons, is the most notoriously conservative of all the circuit courts, and astronomically speaking, veritably probably to agree with indeed the most conservative rulings. We saw this when a private group filed a action in Amarillo seeking to ban revocation capsules that had been legal for 20 times. In April 2023, Judge Kacsmaryk sided with the private group, saying the US Food and Drug Administration had to roll back its blessing of mifepristone for the whole country. The Fifth Circuit Court largely agreed, and the case made it to the Supreme Court-- which also, actually broke that decision. VLADECK But, you know, at multiple points we were hours down from this really surprisingly broad and remarkable ruling, that would have dramatically confined access to mifepristone on a civil base, going into effect. And so, you know, I suppose the notion that like, hey, we walked up to the precipice but did not fall in, does not mean everything's okay. But while the Supreme Court moved snappily to break the mifepristone decision, frequently it actually just sits on cases for months before it hears them, effectively allowing the lower court judge's decision to mandate civil law during that time. Like in 2022, when Judge Tipton ruled that Biden could not reprioritize which undocumented emigrants to deport first. nearly a time latterly, we're still staying for the Supreme Court to rule on that. And Tipton's ruling is still in effect. VLADECK Any good counsel is going to try to maximize the chances that their customer's going to win. What is different about what is been passing recently is actually trying to mound the sundeck so that you are guaranteed of a specific outgrowth. Judge shopping the way we see it moment is a fairly new miracle. So- how do we fix it? Well, the quarter courts themselves could decide to do effects else. In February, the Southern District of Texas changed Victoria's single- judge status. It now has two active judges. And since these are civil courts, Congress could also pass a law regulating the way cases are distributed. There is a bill in Congress right now that would deflect any action that wants to block a civil policy to the courts in Washington, DC. Or the Supreme Court could write new rules for the lower courts. But until also, anyone who wants a good shot at getting a case before the Supreme Court knows that in Texas quarter courts, you can pick your judge.
