The petition of the day is:

Issue: Whether, in cases with multiple judgments fixing damages, 28 U.S.C. § 1961(a) – which instructs that postjudgment interest should run from “the entry of the judgment” – requires federal courts invariably to begin running postjudgment interest from the first judgment, or whether courts may take into account other factors, such as the availability of prejudgment interest, in deciding from when postjudgment interest runs.
