GLITCH IN THE MATRIX: SUPREME COURT DOCKET REVEALS CASE THAT “NEVER EXISTED” — AND IT’S ALREADY BEEN DECIDED
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In what data analysts are calling the “spookiest metadata anomaly since the phantom voter rolls,” a self-styled digital glitch hunter has uncovered what appears to be a phantom case buried in the public docket of the Supreme Court of the United States.
The entry, flagged by freelance database auditor Elena Vasquez, lists Doe v. United States, Docket No. 25-ORACLE, with a ruling date of March 15, 2024 — over a year ago. The problem? No attorney, clerk, or journalist remembers the case being argued, briefed, or even filed.
