Mandamus: Supervisory mandamus:
Mootness:
Supervisory mandamus
refers to the authority of the Courts of Appeals to exercise “supervisory
control of the District Courts” through their “discretionary power to issue
writs of mandamus.” La Buy v. Howes Leather Co., 352 U. S. 249,
259–260 (1957). There is no sign in our scant supervisory mandamus precedents
that such cases are exempt from the normal mootness rules. See generally Will
v. United States, 389 U. S. 90 (1967); Schlagenhauf v. Holder,
379 U. S. 104 (1964); La Buy, 352 U. S. 249. Indeed, as the court below
acknowledged, “supervisory mandamus cases require live controversies.” 859 F.
3d, at 657.
(U.S.S.C., May 14,
2018, United States v. Sanchez-Gomez, Docket No. 17-312, C.J. Roberts,
unanimous).
Les cours d'appel fédérales disposent d'un pouvoir discrétionnaire de
rendre des "writs of mandamus". L'espèce se rapporte à un
"supervisory mandamus", et la Cour rappelle qu'une telle affaire ne
doit pas être "moot" pour procéder.
