It's time for the press to step up their pressure on Scalia to recuse himself. Cheney's case will be heard by the Supreme Court in 2 weeks.

Same day audio tapes to be released by the court.

SURPEME COURT AGREES TO C-SPAN’s REQUEST FOR SAME-DAY RELEASE OF ARGUMENTS IN FOUR UPCOMING CASES C-SPAN3, C-SPAN Radio and C-SPAN.org to Air Recorded Arguments Immediately

WASHINGTON, DC, April 12, 2004: In response to a request from C-SPAN, the Supreme Court has agreed to same-day release of the audio recordings of oral arguments in four cases of particular national interest being heard this month.

In a letter to C-SPAN Programming VP Terry Murphy dated April 5, 2004, Supreme Court Public Information Officer Kathleen Arberg wrote that the Court had agreed to make the tapes immediately available to the media, “in light of public interest in these cases.”

C-SPAN requested immediate release of the following cases:

Rasul v. Bush and Al Odah v. United States; Tuesday, April 20 (Guantanamo Bay cases)

Cheney v. U.S. District Court; Tuesday, April 27 (Energy Task Force case)

Hamdi v. Rumsfeld; Wednesday, April 28 (enemy combatant case)

Rumsfeld v. Padilla; Wednesday, April 28 (enemy combatant cases)

(note: C-SPAN’s original letter of request to theCcourt is available at c-span.org and the Court’s response is available at c-span.org

These four one-hour oral arguments will air on C-SPAN3, on C-SPAN Radio, and on www.c-span.org as soon they are released by the Court and on C-SPAN later that day. The expectation is that the first two cases, argued at 10 am ET, will be available and aired at approximately 11:30 am on the day of their arguments, while the third and fourth cases, argued at 10 and 11 am ET respectively, are expected to be available beginning at approximately 12:30 pm ET that same day.

The Court has granted same-day audio release of its arguments in only five other cases: two Bush v. Gore cases in 2000; two University of Michigan affirmative action cases in April 2003; and the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (campaign finance) case heard in September 2003. C-SPAN has been the requesting media organization in each of these cases and has aired all five arguments in their entirety.

Typically, the court releases audio recordings of all its arguments at the conclusion of a term.

C-SPAN, the political network of record, was created in 1979 by America’s cable companies as a public service. C-SPAN is currently available in 88 million households, C-SPAN2 in over 73 million households, and C-SPAN3 in 8 million households nationwide.
