CVSG

Read a random definition: NOTA

A quick definition of CVSG:

CVSG: A request from the U.S. Supreme Court for the Solicitor General's opinion on a case that involves government interests, even if the government is not directly involved in the case.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: CVSG is an abbreviation for "Call for the View of the Solicitor General." It is an invitation from the U.S. Supreme Court to the Solicitor General to provide their opinion on a pending petition for writ of certiorari. This invitation is extended when the case involves governmental interests, even if the government is not a party to the case.

One example of a case that might receive a CVSG is a lawsuit between two private companies that could have a significant impact on a government agency or policy. The Supreme Court might ask the Solicitor General for their view on the case to ensure that the government's interests are considered.

Another example could be a case involving a constitutional issue that affects the government's ability to enforce a law or regulation. In this case, the Supreme Court might seek the Solicitor General's opinion to better understand the potential impact of their decision on the government's ability to carry out its duties.

These examples illustrate how the CVSG process works to ensure that the government's interests are taken into account in cases that could have a significant impact on public policy or the government's ability to carry out its duties.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
