BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

In preparation for listening to the oral arguments from tomorrow's Guantanamo Bay cases (see, for example, here -- PDF file), I just read the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit decision in al Odah v. Bush. I had never seen this before:

Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge RANDOLPH.

Concurring opinion filed by Circuit Judge RANDOLPH.


Probably shows my ignorance of the work of circuit courts, but I didn't realize that you could write the majority opinion and write a concurring opinion at the same time. Hmmm. You learn something new every day, I guess.
