Just wanted to highlight this Institute for Justice brief, which John Ross's Short Circuit  post noted today, and summarized: "IJ and several men named David Sosa are asking the Supreme Court to grant another David Sosa's cert petition after the en banc Eleventh Circuit said the Constitution allows police to detain anyone for three days as long as there's a warrant out for the arrest of anyone with the same name somewhere in the country."
