2012 Term In-Chambers Opinions
An in-chambers opinion is written by an individual Justice, usually the Justice for the Circuit from which
the case arises, to dispose of an application by a party to the case for interim relief, e.g., for a stay of
the judgment of the court below, for vacation of a stay, or for a temporary injunction. Any in-chambers
opinions written during October Term 2012 (October 1, 2012, through October 6, 2013), will be posted here on
the day of their issuance. They will remain posted until the opinions for the entire Term are published in the bound volumes of the United States Reports. For further information, see Column Header Definitions.
Caution: These electronic opinions may contain computer-generated errors or other deviations from
the official paper versions of the opinions. Moreover, the original version of an in-chambers opinion is
replaced within a few months by a paginated version of the opinion in the preliminary print, and-one year
after the issuance of that print-by the final version of the case in a U. S. Reports bound volume. In case
of discrepancies between the print and electronic versions of an in-chambers opinion, the print version
controls. In case of discrepancies between the in-chambers opinion and any later official version of the
opinion, the later version controls.
