Just release the decision, you don't need Elu to weigh in on it or a THO - unless the entire Court (minus you) has gone missing?Did you happen to keep up with the personnel changes in the Court during this term? I think this might provide your answer.
Sometimes that isn't possible, but what I can say is that just as I indicated in my previous update on this matter, we are close to being able to release a decision.Just release the decision, you don't need Elu to weigh in on it or a THO - unless the entire Court (minus you) has gone missing?
Oh mein gott does that mean that you and the other Justice disagree so you need the THO to break the tie?Sometimes that isn't possible, but what I can say is that just as I indicated in my previous update on this matter, we are close to being able to release a decision.
There are more scenarios than just that one. We ask your patience a bit longer, this isn’t exactly an urgent question regardless.Oh mein gott does that mean that you and the other Justice disagree so you need the THO to break the tie?
Precisely.If the decision isn't urgent, then why wouldn't the Court wait for all justices/hearing officers to weigh in, rather than rush out a decision based only on the opinion of two justices?
This is the traditional approach of the Court. It leaves much to be desired.If the decision isn't urgent, then why wouldn't the Court wait for all justices/hearing officers to weigh in, rather than rush out a decision based only on the opinion of two justices?
As I said on discord, I appreciate the quick responses.There are more scenarios than just that one. We ask your patience a bit longer, this isn’t exactly an urgent question regardless.
You and I will have to agree to disagree on this, but I think it's better for a decision that isn't time-sensitive to take longer if that's the cost of being more well-considered. Just because a bare majority of the Court has the power to issue a decision, doesn't mean there's any real reason for them to ignore the view of their incoming colleague (who might, for instance, raise a point that the other two justices hadn't considered.)This is the traditional approach of the Court.

You're assuming that another Justice isn't going to go missing.
