   C. A. 11th Cir. Certiorari granted, judgment vacated, and case remanded for further consideration in light of Banks v. ICI Americas, Inc., 266 Ga. 607, 469 S. E. 2d 171 (1996).

Justice Scalia,

concurring.

Since I have been critical of the Court’s excessive use of the GVR mechanism, I think it appropriate to explain why I think it proper to GVR here.

As I described in Lawrence v. Chater, 516 U. S. 163, 177 (1996) (Scalia, J., dissenting), our practice of granting certiorari, vacating the judgment below, and remanding for further proceedings in light of intervening developments apparently began when we first set aside the judgments of state supreme courts to allow those courts to consider the impact of state statutes enacted after their judgments had been entered. E. g., Missouri ex rel. Wabash R. Co. v. Public Serv. Comm’n, 273 U. S. 126 (1927). By 1945, the practice of vacating state judgments in light of supervening events had become so commonplace that we could describe it as “[a] customary procedure.” State Farm Mut. Automobile Ins. Co. v. Duel, 324 U. S. 154, 161. “Similarly, where a federal court of appeals’ decision on a point of state law had been cast in doubt by an intervening state supreme court decision, it became our practice to vacate and remand so that the question could be decided by judges ‘familiar with the intricacies and trends of local law and practice.’” Lawrence, supra, at 180 (Scalia, J., dissenting) (quoting Huddleston v. Dwyer, 322 U. S. 232, 237 (1944)). See also Conner v. Simler, 367 U. S. 486 (1961); cf. Omaha Nat. Bank v. Nebraskans for Independent Banking, Inc., 426 U. S. 310 (1976) (GVR’ing in light of an intervening state statute).

Thus, the present case falls squarely within our historical use of the GVR mechanism. The Supreme Court of Georgia’s decision in Banks v. ICI Americas, Inc., 266 Ga. 607, 609-610, 469 S. E. 2d 171, 174 (1996) (Banks II), handed down after the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit’s decision, makes clear that the Eleventh Circuit’s interpretation of Georgia law was incorrect. The sequence of events was as follows: After the Court of Appeals had issued its per curiam opinion affirming the District Court’s entry of summary judgment against petitioners, the Georgia Supreme Court, in Banks v. I. C. I., 264 Ga. 732, 450 S. E. 2d 671 (1994) (Banks I), in effect overruled the Georgia case that was the basis for the District Court’s holding. Petitioners’ petition to the Eleventh Circuit for rehearing was denied, the only explanation given being that “the holding of the Georgia Supreme Court in [Banks I] would not apply to the injuries involved in this case” because that holding had no retroactive application. Thomas v. American Home Products, Inc., No. 93-9214 (CA11 1996), App. to Pet. for Cert. 28a. Shortly before the present petition for writ of certiorari was filed, the Supreme Court of Georgia held in Banks II that Banks I was retroactive.

The Chief Justice points out that “[p]etitioners’ request for relief meets none of the tests set forth in this Court’s Rule 10, ‘Considerations Governing Review on Certiorari.’” Post, at 916. That is certainly so. Of course as this Court’s Rule 10 itself makes plain, those tests “neither control[l] nor fully measur[e] the Court’s discretion,” but rather merely “indicate the character of the reasons the Court considers” in deciding whether to grant certiorari. More importantly, however, we have never regarded Rule 10, which indicates the general character of reasons for which we will grant plenary consideration, as applicable to our practice of GVR’ing. See, e. g., Lawrence v. Chater, supra, at 166-167. Indeed, most of the cases in which we exercise our power to GVR plainly do not meet the “tests” set forth in Rule 10. See, e. g., Schmidt v. Espy, 513 U. S. 801 (1994) (GVR in light of administrative reinterpretations of federal statutes); Crouse v. United States, ante, p. 801 (GVR in light of Koon v. United States, 518 U. S. 81 (1996)); Greater N. O. Broadcasting v. United States, ante, p. 801 (GVR in light of 44 Liquormart, Inc. v. Rhode Island, 517 U. S. 484 (1996)).

We are not remanding this state-law case, as The Chief Justice suggests, because the Eleventh Circuit failed to prophesy the course that the Supreme Court of Georgia would ultimately take, see post, at 917, any more than we remand federal-law cases in light of intervening decisions of this Court because the court of appeals failed adequately to predict how we would decide. In both instances, we are vacating the decision below to allow the Court of Appeals to consider an intervening decision of the Court that is the final expositor of a particular body of law—with federal questions, the Supreme Court of the United States, and with questions of Georgia law, the Supreme Court of Georgia. We assuredly would not decline to GVR a case affected by one of our own intervening decisions merely because the case “is of no general importance beyond the interest of the parties.” Post, at 917. Almost all of our GVR’s fit this description—for example, the many cases GVR’d in recent months in light of our decision in Bailey v. United States, 516 U. S. 137 (1995), e. g., Cuellar v. United States, 518 U. S. 1014 (1996). I can think of no possible reason why we would routinely GVR “unimportant” cases in light of our own opinions but not in light of state supreme court opinions, unless, of course, we have less regard for the federal courts’ correct application of state law than for their correct application of federal law—an attitude we should certainly not acknowledge.

I do not share The Chief Justice’s fear that our action today will flood the Court with applications to review questions of state law by petitioners “unhappy” with the result below. Post, at 917. As I have described, today’s action breaks no new ground but merely continues a longstanding practice. It does not involve us in an intensive review of state law, but requires only the simple determination (rarely available) that the federal-court decision on state law appears to contradict a subsequent decision of the state supreme court. When the conflict is of “far more dubious . . . relevance” than the one at issue here, ibid., we can and should exercise our discretion to deny the petition for writ of certiorari.

Chief Justice Rehnquist,

with whom Justice Breyer joins,

dissenting.

This is a personal-injury, products-liability case which is in the federal court system by virtue of diversity of citizenship. The Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed a grant of summary judgment against petitioners by the District Court, and petitioners have sought review here. In a supplemental brief filed after their petition, they have called attention to the decision of the Supreme Court of Georgia, Banks v. ICI Americas, Inc., 266 Ga. 607, 609-610, 469 S. E. 2d 171, 174 (1996), handed down on April 29, 1996, 2Vfe months after the Court of Appeals denied rehearing.

Petitioners’ request for relief meets none of the tests set forth in this Court’s Rule 10, “Considerations Governing Review on Certiorari.” The first of these considerations, as outlined in the Rule, is if a court of appeals has rendered a decision in conflict with the decision of another United States court of appeals, or has decided a federal question in a way which conflicts with the decision of a state court of last resort, or “has so far departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings ... as to call for an exercise of this Court’s supervisory power.” There is clearly no conflict between courts of appeals in this case, nor do petitioners claim that the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit has decided a federal question in a way which conflicts with a state court of last resort. Nor could it be claimed that the Court of Appeals departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings, since the decision of the Supreme Court of Georgia in Banks was handed down more than two months after the Court of Appeals denied rehearing.

The other considerations governing review of certiorari likewise have no application to this case. The Court of Appeals here has not decided an important question of federal law which should be settled by this Court, or decided a federal question in a way that conflicts with applicable decisions of this Court.

Thus, one must ask, why is this Court intervening to vacate and remand this case to the Court of Appeals? The Court’s answer, I suspect, would be that Banks suggests that the Court of Appeals may have wrongly decided an issue of Georgia law in the case. But this Court’s function, generally speaking, is not to correct federal courts’ misapplications of state law, except, perhaps, in exceptional cases with importance beyond the parties’ particular dispute. This is not such an exceptional case; there is no reason to think that the Eleventh Circuit will not apply Banks faithfully in future cases. Nor is this a case which we must, for one reason or another, decide on the merits and where the views of another court as to the intervening state-law decision might be useful, or a case where certiorari has already been granted and the case argued on the merits. See Lawrence v. Chater, 516 U. S. 168, 176 (1996) (Rehnquist, C. J., concurring in No. 94-9323 and dissenting in No. 94-8988) (citing and distinguishing eases).

To be sure, there is a “special deference owed to state law and state courts in our system of federalism,” id., at 179 (Scalia, J., dissenting), but by failing to predict the Georgia Supreme Court’s Banks decision the Eleventh Circuit has in no way slighted the State of Georgia or upset the balance of our federalism. I do not believe that this Court has a stake in the correctness of discrete state-law decisions by federal courts, nor, in such cases, any “ ‘obligation] to weigh justice among contesting parties.’ ” Lawrence, supra, at 177 (Rehnquist, C. J., concurring in No. 94-9323 and dissenting in No. 94-8988) (quoting 2 H. Pringle, The Life and Times of William Howard Taft 997-998 (1939)).

I trust I am correct in thinking that the Court would not grant certiorari in this ease to decide whether or not the decision of the Supreme Court of Georgia in Banks requires a different outcome than that reached below. I am equally sanguine that the Court would not summarily reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals on a question of Georgia law, a subject about which that court knows a great deal more than we do. Because we are only granting, vacating, and remanding to the Court of Appeals, the Court’s action may seem more palatable here. But I believe it is just as incorrect as would be our deciding the merits of a question of state law in some other diversity case which is of no general importance beyond the interest of the parties. The decision to vacate and remand in this case doubtless seems an easy one to those who join it; the Court of Appeals specifically mentioned the retroactivity issue later decided in Banks in its opinion denying rehearing, and respondents have filed no response to petitioners’ supplemental brief. But today’s action will encourage numerous similar requests from other parties unhappy with the decision of a court of appeals in their diversity cases, and the relevance of the intervening factors which they urge may be far more dubious than is the relevance of Banks to this case.

Finally, requiring the Court of Appeals to delve into the facts and law of the case again, months after it denied rehearing, is not without cost. The typical active judge of the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit participates in somewhere between 150 and 200 panel decisions each year. For us to require a busy court to once more revisit the merits of this state-law dispute gives these petitioners more of the time and resources of the federal judicial system than they deserve.

I dissent from the Court's disposition of this case.

    Gomez, Director, California Department of Corrections, et al. v. Fierro et al.
   C. A. 9th Cir. Motion of Pacific Legal Foundation for leave to file a brief as amicus curiae granted. Motion of respondents for leave to proceed in forma pauperis granted. Certiorari granted, judgment vacated, and case remanded for further consideration in light of Cal. Penal Code Ann. § 3604 (West Supp. 1996).

Justice Stevens,

with whom Justice Breyer joins,

dissenting.

There are powerful reasons for concluding capital cases as promptly as possible. Delay in the execution of judgments imposing the death penalty frustrates the public interest in deterrence and eviscerates the only rational justification for that type of punishment. From the standpoint of the defendant, the delay can become so excessive as to constitute cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth Amendment. Unfortunately, however, the Court has exhibited a callous indifference to these concerns, first by refusing to hear the claims of two inmates who have suffered under a “sword of Damocles” since they were first sentenced to death in 1978 and 1979, and now by ordering a remand that can serve no purpose other than to delay the conclusion of these cases.

The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has held that these two respondents may be put to death by lethal injection, but that using the gas chamber to carry out the sentence is constitutionally impermissible. Fierro v. Gomez, 77 F. 3d 301, 309 (1996). Subsequent to that decision the California Legislature amended the State’s death penalty statute to provide that lethal injections should be used to carry out death sentences unless the defendant requests that the State use the gas chamber. See Cal. Penal Code Ann. § 3604(b) (West Supp. 1996). Thus, under either the terms of the new statute or the terms of the judgment of the Court of Appeals, lethal injections will be used to carry out these respondents’ sentences. It seems perfectly clear that nothing but delay will be accomplished by this Court’s decision to vacate the judgment of the Court of Appeals and to remand for further proceedings in the light of the new statute. I therefore respectfully dissent.

       See, e. g., Kozinski & Gallagher, Death: The Ultimate Run-On Sentence, 46 Case W. Res. L. Rev. 1, 4 (1995) (“Whatever purposes the death penalty is said to serve—deterrence, retribution, assuaging the pain suffered by victims’ families—these purposes are not served by the system as it now operates”); Powell, Commentary: Capital Punishment, 102 Harv. L. Rev. 1035 (1989) (“[Y]ears of delay between sentencing and execution . . . undermin[e] the deterrent effect of capital punishment and reducfe] public confidence in the criminal justice system”).

       See Lackey v. Texas, 514 U. S. 1045 (1995) (Stevens, J., respecting denial of certiorari); Furman v. Georgia, 408 U. S. 238, 312 (1972) (White, J., concurring in judgment) (noting that when the death penalty “ceases realistically to further [the aims of deterrence and retribution] its imposition would then be the pointless and needless extinction of life with only marginal contributions to any discernible social or public purposes. A penalty with such negligible returns to the State would be patently excessive and cruel and unusual punishment violative of the Eighth Amendment”).

       See Lackey v. Johnson, ante, p. 911 (October 7, 1996) (order denying cert.); White v. Johnson, ante, p. 911 (October 7, 1996) (same). Sadly, in refusing to hear these claims, the Court turns a deaf ear to an argument that courts in other countries have found persuasive. See, e.g., State v. Makwanyane & Mchunu, Case No. CCT/3/94 (So. Afr. Const. Ct. June 6, 1995); Pratt v. Attorney General of Jamaica, [1994] 2 A. C. 1, 4 All E. R. 769 (P. C. 1993) (en banc).

    No. 95-1956.
    Department of the Interior et al. v. South Dakota et al.
   C. A. 8th Cir. Certiorari granted, judgment vacated, and case remanded to the Court of Appeals with instructions to vacate the judgment of the United States District Court for the District of South Dakota and remand the matter to the Secretary of the Interior for reconsideration of his administrative decision.

Justice Scalia,

with whom Justice O’Connor and Justice Thomas join,

dissenting.

This ease arises from the 1990 action of the Department of the Interior acquiring 91 acres in trust for the Lower Brule Tribe of the Sioux Indians, pursuant to § 5 of the 1934 Indian Reorganizations Act (IRA), 48 Stat. 985, as amended, 25 U. S. C. § 465. Respondents challenged this action in Federal District Court, contending both that the Department’s particular action violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U. S. C. § 706, and that the Secretary’s statutory authority to acquire lands under the IRA is unconstitutional as a delegation of legislative power.

Throughout this litigation, until now, it has been the Department’s position that IRA land acquisitions are unreviewable under the APA because they fall within the exception for matters “committed to agency discretion by law.” § 701(a)(2). The District Court agreed that APA review was unavailable, although on different grounds, holding that since the United States had acquired title, the Quiet Title Act (QTA), 28 U. S. C. § 2409a, provided the sole statutory means of challenging the action, and that the QTA explicitly prohibits actions challenging title to Indian lands. The District Court also upheld the Secretary’s constitutional authority to acquire land on behalf of the United States under the IRA. The Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, however, reversed on the ground that §5 of the IRA constitutes a delegation of legislative power to the Secretary of the Interior and is hence unconstitutional. 69 F. 3d 878 (1995).

Following the Eighth Circuit’s sweeping decision, the Department of the Interior did an about-face with regard to the availability of judicial review under the APA. It promulgated a new regulation providing that “the Secretary shall publish in the Federal Register, or in a newspaper of general circulation serving the affected area a notice of his/her decision to take land into trust,” and that “the Secretary shall acquire title in the name of the United States no sooner than 30 days after the notice is published.” Department of the Interior, Land Acquisitions (Non-gaming), 61 Fed. Reg. 18083 (1996) (to be codified at 25 CFR § 151.12). The preamble to that regulation recites that it is being adopted “[i]n response to a recent court decision, State of South Dakota v. U S. Department of the Interior, 69 F. 3d 878 (8th Cir. 1995),” and asserts that the procedure it sets forth “permits judicial review before transfer of title to the United States.” The Solicitor General now represents to us that it is the position of the Department of the Interior, as well as that of the Department of Justice, that judicial review of an IRA land trust acquisition may be obtained by filing suit within the 30-day waiting period, although action will continue to be barred by the QTA after the United States formally acquires title.

The decision today—to grant, vacate, and remand in light of the Government’s changed position—is both unprecedented and inexplicable. This Court has in recent years occasionally entered a “GVR” in light of a position newly taken by the Solicitor General where the United States was the prevailing party below. See, e. g., Stutson v. United States, 516 U. S. 193 (1996) (per cu-riam); Schmidt v. Espy, 513 U. S. 801 (1994); Wells v. United States, 511 U. S. 1050 (1994); Reed v. United States, 510 U. S. 1188 (1994); Chappell v. United States, 494 U. S. 1075 (1990). Even that extension of our earlier practice is in my view unsound. See Lawrence v. Chater, 516 U. S. 168, 184-186 (1995) (Scalia, J., dissenting). But we have never before GVR’d simply because the Government, having lost below, wishes to try out a new legal position. The unfairness of such a practice to the litigant who prevailed in the court of appeals is obvious. (“Heads I win big,” says the Government; “tails we come back down and litigate again on the basis of a more moderate Government theory.”) Today’s decision encourages the Government to do what it did here: to “go for broke” in the courts of appeals, rather than get the law right the first time.

What makes today’s action inexplicable as well as unprecedented is the fact that the Government’s change of legal position does not even purport to be applicable to the present case. The Government now concedes only that APA review is available before the Secretary’s taking of title under the IRA; it has not altered its view that once title has passed to the United States APA review is precluded by the QTA. 28 U. S. C. § 2409a(a); Pet. for Cert. 7. Since in this case title has passed, the Government’s position in the present litigation remains what it was: Judicial review is unavailable.

The Government contends, however, that the Court of Appeals’ determination that the IRA was a delegation of legislative power was based in part upon the unavailability of judicial review. I fail to see how the availability of judicial review has anything to do with that question; perhaps the Court of Appeals thought otherwise, though its opinion on this point is somewhat contradictory. If, however, judicial reviewability was germane to the Court of Appeals’ judgment, surely it was only such reviewability as would exist of right, and not such as would be accorded only at the discretion of the agency. It is merely the latter that we have here: The Government concedes only that, if the Secretary chooses to announce his acquisition decision before the acquisition becomes effective (as the new regulation graciously requires), judicial review is available. It is inconceivable that this reviewability-at-the-pleasure-of-the-Secretary could affect the constitutionality of the IRA in anyone’s view, including that of the Court of Appeals.

Finally, the existence of the new regulation does not make this a case in which a postjudgment change in the law applicable to the dispute warrants a remand. The preamble to the regulation acknowledges that “the Eighth Circuit decision precludes the Secretary from taking into trust the land at issue in that particular case,” and explicitly states that “[t]he procedure announced in today’s rule . . . will apply to all pending and future trust acquisitions." 61 Fed. Reg. 18083 (1996) (emphasis added). Of course that statement merely recites the obvious, since, title already having been acquired in this case, it is quite impossible for the Secretary to provide 30-day advance notice of intent to take title. Evidently for that reason, the Government asks this Court, if it declines to grant certiorari, not merely to GVR, but to do so “with instructions that the judgment of the district court sustaining the Secretary’s decision also be vacated and that the matter, in turn, be remanded to the Secretary of the Interior for reconsideration and issuance of a new administrative decision.” Pet. for Cert. 25. I cannot imagine where we would derive the authority for this. If, as the Government asserts in its brief, statutory judicial review of a land-trust decision under § 5 of the IRA is unavailable once title has passed to the United States, then certainly federal courts cannot construct the necessary conditions for judicial review by simply ordering the land acquisition undone.

In sum, there is no basis in precedent or in reason for a GVR in the present case. Since a federal statute has been held unconstitutional, I would grant the petition for certiorari.

      At one point the court quoted approvingly its statement in United States v. Garfinkel, 29 F. 3d 451, 459 (CA8 1994), that “ ‘[judicial review is a factor weighing in favor of upholding a statute against a nondelegation challenge.’” 69 F. 3d 878, 882 (1995). This seems inconsistent, however, with the approach the court takes elsewhere in its opinion, when it says: “We doubt whether the Quiet Title Act precludes APA review of agency action by which the United States acquires title. But given our conclusion that § 465 is an unconstitutional delegation of power, we need not decide this issue.” Id., at 881, n. 1.
