WASHINGTON - The halls of justice are open to all, or so we learn in civics class, but one visitor got the bum's rush at the Supreme Court on Friday.

The uninvited guest was a small brown bat, first seen flying around the court's huge ceremonial main hall on Wednesday night, court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said. The bat eluded a search party, but reappeared Friday morning as tourists milled around the hall and filed up the long marble front steps.

Police closed the court's front doors, and a groundskeeper collared the bat with a trash can. The lost bat stayed put until animal control officers arrived.

The nine justices weren't around for final disposition of the case, though. They were meeting behind closed doors, in a bat-free room, at the time.

Operation Bat went better than a foxhunt organized at the court last year. Foxhounds were unable to track down a fox seen slipping into the court's parking garage.

Justice Anthony M. Kennedy later conceded the dogs were outfoxed, and court police assume the fox found its own way out of the building.

hnh, why all the fuss about a bat (or a fox for that matter? Poor little bat. Prolly died from the stress.

btw, thanks for the cut and paste!

I can just hear that poor little bat cry for its freedom: "Hey, I know my rights! You can't get away with this police brutality! Remember ATTIC! uh. ATTIC! uh. ATTIC! uh."

Besides it may not have been a Republican. It might have been Janet Reno, or any old bat.

Wow, littlek, apparently I am a member of the Post and didn't even know it.

Me too. After registering xt ump times, I guess it sticks.
