SCOTUS Again Extends Cert Petition Deadline for Dish DEs

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts again granted Dish Network designated entities Northstar Wireless and SNR Wireless an extension of the deadline to file a cert petition, per a notation Friday in SCOTUS docket 22A401. The deadline, which had been Friday, is now Jan. 15. Northstar counsel requested the extension to get up to speed on the challenge by Northstar and SNR of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit's decision upholding the FCC's denial of AWS-3 auction bidding credits for the DEs (see 2212060056). Roberts previously granted an extension from Nov. 16 to Dec. 16 (see 2211080018).
