The U.S. Supreme Court yesterday left in place last year’s Ninth Circuit decision to strike down a 2006 Arizona law that denied bail to undocumented immigrants charged with “serious” felonies. Six members of the Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal from Arizona Sherriff Joseph Arpaio to reinstate the Arizona law, overruling three of the more conservative members of the Court—Justices Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito—who said they would have heard the case.
