The lower court ruling would not stand since the appeals court determined that the plaintiff(state of Virginia) lacked the standing to bring suit to begin with. Ultimately, this issue is going to be decided by the US Supreme Court.
So they reversed, not dismissed but didn’t reach the merits.
I figured that the article had it wrong.
I hope VA requests rehearing en banc. Wasn’t the basis for their suit a state law? They would have standing if that’s the case.
