Scalia on the take

[eddiew]

t’s now been revealed that the luxury hunting ranch vacation Antonin Scalia was on when he died was a gift from someone who Scalia indirectly helped with a recent Supreme Court decision.

In late 2015, the Supreme Court declined to hear an age discrimination suit (Hinga, James V. Mic Group, LLC) against a subsidiary of the manufacturing company J.B. Poindexter, which is owned by John B. Poindexter. Poindexter also owns the 30,000-acre Cibolo Creek Ranch in Shafter, Texas, where Scalia was vacationing when he died last weekend. According to the Washington Post, Scalia didn’t pay for his flight to the ranch, or for his room at the luxury ranch. His food and beverages were also free. Poindexter maintains that Scalia wasn’t given any preferential treatment, as the 36 people staying at the ranch that weekend were all staying for free.

However, the Post also reports that lingering questions remain about who else was staying at the ranch, and whether or not Poindexter or any of the ranch’s guests weretrying to curry favor with the late Justice

Some people have no problem with RW justices getting free stuff from those whose cases they have heard or will hear.

Corrupt Pubs and silly dupes always...

Not only does his dealings with Poindexter look suspicious, but Scalia was pretty chummy with the Koch brothers as well.

And...............yeah..................if someone has a case pending before the SC, it doesn't look too good if they give them expensive gifts.

You know, I just looked up how much a room would be on a mid week stay, and the rates start at 395.00/night and if you get their best suite, it jumps up to 800.00/night.

"Petition for writ of certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit denied."

How many justices does it take to deny a case?
I was under the impression it only took one.

Which one(s) denied it?

HINGA v. MIC GROUP, LLC | Leagle.com

A district court found for the defendant, as did the circuit appeals court. If you read the appeals court decision, it was cut and dry. I can see why the Supremes didn't bother with it: James Hinga v. MIC Group, L.L.C., No. 14-20616 (5th Cir. 2015)
