Not necessarily. McCain's eligibility, it could be argued, remains somewhat of a "gray area", in Constitutional terms, and the High Court would want to hear all arguments from both sides.

A resolution by the U.S. Senate, drafted after being given testimony from legal scholars and approved by members of Congress from both sides of the political aisle, could help sway a judge's decision. It could even help sway a judge's decision not take a case challenging McCain's eligibility.

And, again, that was part of its intended purpose.
