Jacobus Rentmeester v. Nike, Inc.

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 15-35509 · judgment February 27, 2018

Certiorari denied · March 25, 2019
Pre-decision estimate: 5% cert probability

Before the decision, modestly above the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a Ninth Circuit decision below, a circuit split argued in the petition, and a dissent in the court below (flagged in the petition), and down for a business respondent.
