Supreme Court of the United States
Camreta v. Greene, Personally and as Next Friend of S. G., a Minor — Sotomayor, J., Concurring
May 26, 2011131 S. Ct. 2020
Summary
Sotomayor concurred in the judgment, agreeing the case is moot and vacatur is appropriate. She argued the Court should not reach the difficult question of whether a prevailing party can obtain review of a constitutional ruling when no case or controversy exists. She noted the Court should not decide merits without an Article III case, citing past practice of vacating judgments without resolving standing or right to appeal.
