Rogue Courts

CalPundit has an interesting comment:

ROGUE COURTS….I keep hearing that the Ninth Circuit court is a “rogue” liberal court because it’s constantly being overturned by the Supreme Court. So I’m curious: there must also be a circuit court that’s the least overturned, right? So does that make it a rogue conservative court?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Among the comments that follow there is some analysis that indicates that the Ninth Circuit has no higher a percentage of its cases reversed by the Supreme Court than other circuits. It does have more reviewed by the higher court as a simple result of the fact that 18.5% of all appeals court cases are decided in the Ninth Circuit.
