General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.
McGee v. Alaska, 463 U.S. 1339 (1983)
McGee v. Alaska No. A-156 Decided September 9, 1983 463 U.S. 1339
ON APPLICATION FOR BAIL
Syllabus
An application for bail pending disposition of applicant state prisoner’s petition for certiorari to review the Court of Appeals’ affirmance of the District Court’s denial of habeas corpus relief, is denied even though the State does not oppose applicant’s release on bail. While state authorities can release applicant on bail, it is no part of the federal courts’ function to allow bail in federal habeas corpus review of state proceedings simply because the State does not object. Moreover, the probability of this Court’s granting certiorari in this case approaches, if it does not reach, zero.
