[EL] Ginsburg error

Since I know Fred Woocher does not check ELB during the day (at least 
not enough), this is hot off the virtual presses:

    Once Again, Justice Ginsburg Not Only Corrects Small Error in
    Opinion But Announces It <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=73956>

On Monday, I noteda small error <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=73880>in 
Justice Ginsburg’s AZ redistricting commission that a reader pointed out 
to me. When a similar thing happened with the Texas voter id case, 
Justice Ginsburg promptly corrected the error and announced it, 
something which is quite rare and worthy of praise (as I noted inthis 
oped <http://t.co/GSN12uL7Db>for the National Law Journal).

Now, from the Court’s public information office:

    RE: 13-1314 —/Arizona State Legislature/v./Arizona Independent
    Redistricting Commission/

    For your information, Justice Ginsburg has amended the opinion of
    the Court in the above case, released on Monday, June 29.  Page 8 of
    the opinion contained an error.  Redistricting plans adopted by the
    California Redistricting Commission may be, but are not necessarily,
    subject to public referendum.  Accordingly, the Justice revised the
    sentence discussing the California Redistricting Commission to
    read:  “The California Redistricting Commission, established by
    popular initiative, develops redistricting plans which can be halted
    by public referendum.”  The version of the opinion on the Court’s
    website has been updated.
