That will last until the 9th Circus chimes in.
5th Circuit jurisdiction
I may be wrong but I believe this decision already conflicts with Judge Howell’s decision in the DC District.
She threw out Arpaio’s suit saying that he had not suffered any damage yet and therefore didn’t have standing.
Hanen just explicitly agreed the States have standing and that even though it hasn’t started yet, they do stand to suffer damage (doh).
Maybe it’s a stretch but seems to be a conflict. Any conflict ends up in the SCOTUS, after going through the Federal Appellate courts.
So we may not have to wait for Richard Paez and the Spanish Inquisition of San Francisco to weigh in.
Any lawyuhs on line please correct my understanding....
