Virginia Libertarian Party Files Brief with U.S. Supreme Court in Circulator Residency Lawsuit

On October 17, the Virginia Libertarian Party filed this brief with the U.S. Supreme Court. The case is Libertarian Party of Virginia v Judd, 13-231. The issue is Virginia’s ban on out-of-state petitioners. The state wants the U.S. Supreme Court to reinstate the law. The party’s brief argues that the lower courts were correct to invalidate the law.

The next step is that the U.S. Supreme Court will decide whether to hear Virginia’s appeal. If the Court declines, then the case is over and the state can no longer enforce the ban.
