The judges sitting in the Ninth Circuit have issued a new order in the Perry
v. Brown case today. The full panel of Ninth Circuit judges have decided
that en banc rehearing of the three-judge panel’s decision will not be
granted. This comes after a months-long wait: the proponents of Proposition
8 announced their intention to seek en banc review of the Ninth Circuit’s
three-judge panel decision on February 21 of this year. As we noted

发帖数: 2113 | 3 這是我一開始的判斷。
高院會回答三個問題，焦點是doma sec 3 是否違憲的問題，
剩下兩個問題不是Windsor案的重點，
BLAG有沒有standing，放在最后帶過就好。有沒有都不重要。
Solicitor General 是代表聯邦政府的律師。
certiorari petition 是申請judicial review 的申請，
也可以叫writ petition
全稱 petition for a writ of certiorari before judgment
按后來我重新翻書的理解，在standing的問題上，如果BLAG沒有standing，
高院就不用裁決正經問題，政府沒standing，Windsor贏，
維持原判，DOMA sec 3違憲，
這個判決就簡單多了，但高院這么做就顯得太偷懶了。
就不糾纏standing的問題，高院的裁決結果必定是推翻DOMA sec 3 的，
我對此有百分之九十九的信心。
你說的移民福利，在宣布DOMA sec 3 違憲之后，
同性伴侶享有移民福利-聯邦福利。
非移民簽證移民簽證結婚綠卡，應該都享有，與異性夫婦無異。

美国联邦法院，州法院，巡回法院，最高法院，上诉法院分别有什么职能？谢谢！
最佳答案
以下内容供参考：
美国共有52个相互独立的法院系统，包括联邦法院系统、首都哥伦比亚特区法院系统和
50个州法院系统。虽然联邦最高法院是全美国的最高法院，其决定对美国各级各类法院
均有约束力，但是联邦法院系统并不高于州法院系统，二者之间没有管辖或隶属关系。
从一定意义上讲，美国的法院系统为“双轨制”，一边是联邦法院，一边是州法院，二
者平行，直到联邦最高法院。
联邦法院和州法院管辖的案件种类不同。在刑事领域内，联邦法院审理那些违反联邦法
律的犯罪案件；在民事领域内，联邦法院审理以合众国为一方当事人、涉及“联邦性质
问题”、以及发生在不同州的公民之间而且有管辖权争议的案件。州法院的管辖权比较
广泛。按照美国宪法的规定，凡是法律没有明确授予联邦法院的司法管辖权，都属于州
法院。在实践中，绝大多数刑事案件和民事案件都是由各州法院... 阅读全帖 |

美国联邦国会将美国的领土划分成十三个司法管辖区，基本上是一州一个管辖区。
在1860年时，美国联邦最高法院将之合并成十个管辖区(Circuits），一百零一年后又
将之改制成东部管辖区(Eastern Circuits）、中部管辖区(Middle Circuit）和南部管
辖区(Southern Circuit）三大管辖区，以便管理和运作。
目前在美国联邦最高法院的管辖和领导下的包括波多黎各(Puerto Rico)，关岛(Guam)

个联邦上诉法院(Federal Circuit Court)和九十四个联邦地区法院(Federal District

刑事责任。大家不要欺负精神病患者哟！
精神病辩护（Insanity Defense）是美国刑法的关键因素之一，因为如果精神病辩护
成立，就可以反驳犯罪嫌疑人具有所指控罪的犯罪心态[1]。但对于精神病辩护这一问
题，美国刑事法学者们一直争论不休，正如有学者所言：“很少有什么理论像精神病辩
护这样饱受争议。”[2]“尽管精神病辩护已经作为一种辩护存在了几个世纪，但在刑
法领域中恐怕没有其他的问题遭受如此多的争议。”[3]因此，精神病辩护是美国刑事
法学界长期关注的焦点。本文试图对美国刑事法中的精神病辩护制度作初步探讨。文章

、司法的影响；第二部分为精神病的法律标准，从进化论的角度分述了美国曾经适用过
