Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a protective brief is admissible in federal administrative appeal proceedings before the Supreme Court
Extrahierter Entscheid
The Federal Supreme Court held that the Federal Judiciary Act does not provide for a protective brief in administrative appeal proceedings.
Extrahierte Begründung
A protective brief is a preventive defense tool against an anticipated request for interim measures, but it is not a procedural instrument recognized by federal appellate procedure; the requested shortening of the statutory appeal period is impermissible.
