North Carolina Supreme Court, Grants Rehearing in Case striking down Congressional Districts as a Partisan Gerrymander, Potentially Mooting U.S. Supreme Court’s Independent State Legislature Case, Moore v. Harper.
On a 5-2 Vote, the North Carolina Supreme Court has granted a Rehearing, to reconsider its Decision striking the State’s Congressional Districts as Unconstitutional Partisan Gerrymanders under the State Constitution.
It is also considering the State Districts, as well as, a Separate Voter ID Case.
These were each decided just before the Partisan Majority on the Supreme Court Changed.
Justice Earl in Her Dissents, calls out the Court for Granting the Unusual Rehearing, and Rejecting Common Cause’s Motion to Dismiss..
She says that this is going to further Politicize the Judiciary and Undermine the Legitimacy of the Courts.
The Court put the Congressional Districting Briefing, on a very quick time frame, and it raises the Question whether the U.S. Supreme Court’s Decision in Moore v. Harper could become Moot, after a lot of Briefing and Argument has already been considered by the Supreme Court, on the Independent State Legislature Theory.
