The Supreme Court of the United States handed down sixteen ''per curiam'' opinions during its 2005 term, which lasted from October 3, 2005 until October 1, 2006.〔Two decisions have been omitted despite the Court's inclusion of those decisions in its list of opinions for the term, as these are simple orders without any substantive discussion: 1) ''Maryland v. Blake'', 546 U.S. 72 (2005), is merely a one-line dismissal of certiorari as improvidently granted; and 2) ''Mohawk Industries, Inc. v. Williams'', 547 U.S. 516 (2006), summarily vacated and remanded the case for further consideration in light of the Court's decision in ''Anza v. Ideal Steel Supply Corp.'', 547 U.S. 451 (2006).〕 Because ''per curiam'' decisions are issued from the Court as an institution, these opinions all lack the attribution of authorship or joining votes to specific justices. All justices on the Court at the time the decision was handed down are assumed to have participated and concurred unless otherwise noted. The cases for this term are listed chronologically, noting the midterm change in the Court's membership caused by the retirement of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and the confirmation of Justice Samuel Alito to her seat on January 31, 2006. ==Court membership== Chief Justice: John Roberts Associate Justices: John Paul Stevens, Sandra Day O'Connor (October 3, 2005 – January 31, 2006), Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito (January 31, 2006 – October 1, 2006) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2005 term per curiam opinions of the Supreme Court of the United States」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
