I stand corrected. For a more accurate interpretation of the ruling, please see DragonWriter's reply. I was too hasty in my wording, and I think "grounds" was an inappropriate word choice. However, it does seem that criteria is what the rest of the bench was using when denying to hear the case. Alito was dissenting, but I think his later comment that "The Court has decided not to grant review at this time, but if a conflict in the Circuits develops in the future, the question presented, in my judgment, is important enough to warrant review." implies that he feels that going forward, he does hope that the court will decide to hear the case using possibly any criteria, but specifically of dissent in the circuit courts (since that is what they used to reject this case).
