DC Dicta Blog Archive Technical difficulties at the Supreme Court
During oral arguments today in the case City of Ontario v. Quon, which considers whether police officers had an expectation of privacy in personal (and sexually explicit) text messages sent on pagers issued to them by the city
Justice Anthony Kennedy asked what would happen if a text message was sent to an officer at the same time he was sending one to someone else.
Justice Antonin Scalia wrangled a bit with the idea of a service provider.
You mean (the text) doesnt go right to me? he asked.
Then he asked whether they can be printed out in hard copy.
*****************************
Roberts is the youngest Justice at 55. These are the people who will make decisions involving modern technology?

This is hilarious/tragic. It reads like an article from the Onion.
