    I'm not going to dump a ton of research into this but from doing some googling it looks like the guy who is the subject of the article is a resident of Georgia who is suing over who is allowed to bid on operating tour boats at Niagra Falls, New York.

    I don't know anything about competitive bidding statutes in New York but typically a U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision is final. You don't appeal to the Supreme Court directly, you file a writ of certiorari and ask them to review the case. The Supreme Court has to deem the case to be of sufficient national importance to grant it review.

    I know from extensive litigation here in Indiana that often times only a taxpayer in the community may object to how bidding is conducted. See http://www.in.gov/judiciary/opinions/pdf/08100503mpb.pdf so it is entirely possible that a Georgia resident has no standing to complain about how a city in New York handles competitive bidding.

    At any rate all the Supreme court did was say that they declined to hear the man's case which is probably typical of most requests for a writ of certiorari.

    Since this sounded particularly nutty, I decide to go to Lexis and read the entire procedural history. Mr. Windsor is a whack-job. His son apparently has a company that sells tickets. The Maid of the Mist company that operates the tour boats gave his son's company a credit agreement for on-line sales of ticket vouchers. The price charged by his son's company jacked the price to about 80% higher than walk-in prices at the Maid of the Mist, but gave on-line customers the impression that they were getting a discount and were reserving a time for boarding, neither of which was true. Customers started complaining to MOTM. After some back and forth between the two and attempts by MOTM to compromise, MOTM first asked and then demanded that goofball's company stop selling the vouchers. They, of course, as goofballs are wont to do, refused and started demanding "seven figures" in damages and asserted the right to sell vouchers in perpetuity even though there was no such agreement. MOTM sues to enjoin them and goofballs bring loads of bogus counterclaims. MOTM wins case and is awarded fees. Goofball's appeal and everything is affirmed, except the fee award is sent back for modification. Goofballs then start, individually pro se, though the case involved their corporation, motions to depose various judges, 60 or so other goofy motion, motions to find that the judge is biased and corrupt (why? their reason was because he ruled against their obviously righteous motion). They continue filing motions and lawsuits against everybody in sight, judges, other officials that they had grudges against, etc. Finally, the district court has enough and sanctions them, court of appeals affirms and they file for cert. The USSC, recognizing that there is no reason to further waste resources on goofballs that had been given extensive process, way beyond due process, denies taking it up. This means, of course, that the Constitution is VOID! What are you finding so hard to understand about this, Eddie? Are you one of them thar Illuminatis or something?

    No, some people just become inordinately upset at the correct ruling of a lower court. They react by filing voluminous appeals in a sort of legal temper tantrum. When they are ultimately unsuccessful they cry "Conspiracy!"

    The technical legal term for it is "butthurt".

    Then he is to be worshipped and revered, for he alone stood forth to face down this scandalous government action.

    Isn't it more fun to make wild claims about the Constitution being void and cover-ups in the Supreme Court? It's certainly more fantastical and attention grabbing than the actual facts of the case.
