Ever wonder how often the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces grants extensions of the time in which to file the supplement to the petition for grant of review? In the 12 months ending March 31, 2023, the court granted all 159 such requests. Of these, 123 were initial requests, 28 were second requests, and 8 were third requests. None were denied.
Against that backdrop, what to make of this interlocutory order from the court's March 25, 2024 Daily Journal?
No. 24-0106/AF. U.S. v. DeQuayjan D. Jackson. CCA 40310. On consideration of Appellant's second motion to extend time to file the supplement to the petition for grant of review, it is ordered that the motion is granted, up to and including April 16, 2024. No further extensions of time will be granted in this case.
Is this evidence of a change in policy at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces or simply a one-off? If the latter, what was the court's reasoning? If the former, why not say so? Comments or clarification welcome (real names only, please.)
