This doesn’t inconvenience her at all though. The case is done and settled. This is just him requesting appeal from the Supreme Court and them saying no again. She doesn’t have to do anything about it. There’s no effort on her part.
I’m not perfectly familiar with the process. SCOTUS is an appeals court; does her side not have to go argue? Or is it just the appellant asking the court and the court reviewing previous case documentation and the law? (Yeah, lol, “law”, but I mean ideally.)
Her side doesn’t have to do anything unless SCOTUS grants the appeal. Which they have repeatedly said they will not. If they granted the appeal and agreed to hear it, yes her side would have to go argue.
At this point it is just wasting the Justices’ and their clerks’ time to do the paperwork saying they won’t hear the appeal.
The Supreme Court doesn’t hear every case. Appellants petition the Court to be heard, but four out of nine Justices have to vote to hear the case before it can go anywhere. This case didn’t clear the first hurdle.
