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.

Mississippi v. Turner No. A-661 Decided March 2, 1991 498 U.S. 1306
ON APPLICATION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME WITHIN WHICH TO
FILE PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI
Syllabus
Mississippi has failed to show that a reduction in its appellate staff caused by budgetary cuts constitutes "good cause shown" under this Court’s Rule 13.2, since it has not resulted from events unforeseen and uncontrollable by both counsel and client. Like any other litigant, the State must choose between hiring more attorneys and taking fewer appeals.
