Supreme Court declines expedited review of NSA bulk data case
The Supreme Court on Monday rejected an early appeal to fast track a constitutional challenge to the NSA bulk collection of millions of telephone records. The ruling allows the case to proceed through the lower courts, with former NSA analyst Edward Snowden's disclosures noted as context. Conservative lawyer Larry Klayman argued for immediate review, but the court did not grant the bypass. The suit is one of two NSA cases moving through the appeals process.
