Quite easily one of the most dumbest and most convoluted cases I've seen in my time here. If Bgwah is too busy (computer difficulties) I'll happily argue the defense for him.

Well, if the case is dumb and convoluted, the court simply need not hear any or all parts of it.  I can whittle down my grounds to (1) and (3) if necessary.  Petitioning for the court to hear it is my right as a citizen of Atlasia.

It certainly is your right, no doubt.

However, the court tends to be pretty generous with what cases they agree to hear. And with all the point you slung out there (good ones or not) make it more likely the SC will find some flimsy reasoning to grant a hearing.

I don't think we should deride the court for what cases they choose to take. There is not much precedent on the books, so the more cases that allows the justices the ability to further clarify the Constitution isn't necessarily a bad thing.
