Reply #4: There are 12 justices on the circuit Court of Appeals [View All]

[ugarte]

three of whom will be chosen by lottery to decide whether the whole court should hear the case. The last time around the vote was 10-2 not to hear it. The Schindlers' only hope is that the two judges who voted to hear it the first time are somehow in the initial three-judge panel.

I'm not sure what those odds are, but they're pretty long.
