What is the effect of a motion for summary disposition in a civil case?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Hooton, 693 F.2d 857 (9th Cir. 1982):
On October 13, 1982, we granted the Government's motion for summary affirmance in this case, but denied similar motions in several other cases. Although motions for summary disposition are ordinarily granted or denied without opinion, see Page v. United States, 356 F.2d 337, 339 n. 1 (9th Cir.1966), we issue this opinion to clarify our position on such matters.
