12. Fifth Cir. to hear appeal on Stay on Sept 6

The Fifth Cir. is one of the most conservatives courts in the country and I am worried about what this court will do here http://txredistricting.org/post/30130386613/expedited-oral-argument-in-voter-registration-case-set


The Fifth Circuit has granted a request by the State of Texas for expedited consideration of its appeal of the district court enjoining enforcement of parts of Texas voter registration laws.

The court set oral argument in the case for September 6, 2012 at 11 a.m. in New Orleans.
