I can’t think of a time when a lower court struck down a major administration initiative and Scotus DIDN’T grant plenary review. Perhaps I’m forgetting something but at a minimum it would be very unusual.

Just to be clear, #SCOTUS has done nothing to indicate any interest in this case besides calling for a response—something that a *single* justice can request, and that is *not* remotely predictive of a cert. grant. Everything else is standard practice for *all* cases filed in the Supreme Court.
