Eleven Ninth Circuit Judges Urge Supreme Court to Protect Oak Flat
Eleven judges from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals have urged the US Supreme Court to take up the Oak Flat case, backing protection for the sacred Apache site in Arizona threatened by a copper mining project. The rare show of judicial support adds pressure on the high court to hear Apache Stronghold's challenge after lower courts refused to block the land transfer.
Why now: A rare public appeal by sitting appellate judges signals rising stakes in a closely watched religious freedom and Native land rights case now before the Supreme Court.
