""a great level of deference""
""I guess the question is, why is a couple of hundred people engaging in disorderly conduct and throwing things at a building over the course of two days of comparable severity of a rebellion?""
Three judges from the 9th Circuit met in Pasadena to review a decision about the legality of presidential domestic military deployments. Separate cases from California, Oregon and Illinois challenge the president's authority to dispatch soldiers. The disputes hinge on an obscure subsection of the U.S. code governing deployment of the National Guard and federal service members. A prior 9th Circuit ruling determined the statute requires "a great level of deference" to the president to decide when protest becomes rebellion. The panel's rare rehearing signals potential to reshape legal rules that have enabled recent federal deployments.
