A blog that analyzes appellate issues and opinions from the Supreme Court of Virginia and Court of Appeals of Virginia
virginiaappeals.orgHere are a few recent developments involving the Virginia Supreme Court (and cases that have been reported in the news):
-
College board appointments dispute involving Gov. Glenn Youngkin appointees: The Virginia Supreme Court heard arguments about whether certain Youngkin appointments can serve on university governing boards. The reporting frames it as tied to a Fairfax County Circuit Court decision that had suspended multiple appointees pending resolution.[1]
-
Whether the Virginia Supreme Court would review an AG appeal in that same matter: Another report says the Virginia Supreme Court refused to take up a related request involving the suspension of appointees, while noting options for future appeal depending on how the case proceeds.[2]
-
Recent opinions/orders (civil and regulatory-related items): One legal-news listing notes that the Supreme Court of Virginia published new opinions and orders, including rulings touching arbitration-award standards, sovereign immunity issues, and other administrative/regulatory matters (e.g., approvals tied to utility transmission lines).[4]
If you tell me what you care about most—(1) appeals/opinions, (2) election/redistricting, (3) university/appointments, or (4) criminal justice—I can narrow this to the most relevant headlines.
