The Supreme Court has yet to file opinions in seven of the nine cases argued on the September calendar, and there are only three regular filing days within the 90-day period for six of them. (One case — People v. Henriquez — didn’t have the 90-day clock start running until two weeks after argument when supplemental briefing ended.) So, unless the court makes some last-minute supplemental briefing/vacating submission orders, expect to see two or three multiple filings within the next 13 days.
There was a similar rush with the March calendar cases. Of course, these are nothing compared to the fire-hose-style opinion filings just before Justice Carlos Moreno’s retirement in 2011.
