Anthony Scalia WILL NOT hear the "Pledge of Allegiance" case
<http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=558&ncid=703&e=1&u=/ap/20031014/ap_on_go_su_co/scotus_pledge_of_allegiance>



<snip> Justice Antonin Scalia will not take part in the case, apparently because of public remarks earlier this year critical of the lower court ruling in the pledge case. His absence sets up the possibility that the other eight justices could deadlock 4-4, a result that would allow the lower court decision to stand.






this is a good thing!! that's what he gets for opening his big mouth.

3. If Scalia cannot hear this case, is he allowed to discuss it with the
other members of the Court?? Does anyone know the rules on this?
