I have to respectfully disagree — and the AG of Wisconsin obviously believes that the decision is applicable to his state since they were a party in the Fla. suit.

Did he actually say that? Or are you just inferring it from his actions?

There is a way to combine pretrial proceedings for the same civil actions pending in multiple districts:

§ 1407. Multidistrict litigation

The actions are then remanded back to the originating district courts. But, it's still up to the original judge to make a ruling.

From a political point of view, I understand the AG's position. Even if the ruling isn't "effective" for his state, it creates enough uncertainty that it's reasonable to delay implementation until it's resolved.

Get the popcorn! This is going to turn into a fifteen round Tenth Amendment Fight Of The Century!

I would guess that as soon as some administration official tries to order the Wisconsin AG to start implementation of O-care, they go back to Judge Vinson to get a formal injunction. My question regards the jurisdiction and scope of said injunction.
