Petition of Easurk Emsen Charr (W.D. MO 1921), and rehearing
1. What comparative disadvantage does Charr face compared to Alverto and Bautista, despite honorable service in the U.S. military?
2. The debate over what methods of statutory construction a court may or should use is still quite active today, e.g., Justice Antonin Scalia often vigorously rejected the use of legislative history as illegitimate. The military exception cases focus heavily on statutory construction. How does Judge Van Valkenburgh interpret legislative meaning, particularly in his opinion after rehearing?
