Lawsuit in Which Bernie Sanders Supporters are Suing Democratic Party Over 2016 Race is Postponed Because One Judge Recuses Herself

The Eleventh Circuit had been expecting to hold oral arguments in Wilding v Democratic National Committee, 17-14194, on Tuesday, September 25. However, one of the three judges recused herself, so the other two judges cancelled the hearing and will decide on a new date at a later time. The identity of the judge who recused herself is not known, although the court order refers to “her”. The other two judges would have been Frank M. Hull and Julie Carnes.

This is the lawsuit in which donors to the Democratic Party are suing the party, because, they assert, the party organization violated its own rules and gave preferential treatment to Hillary Clinton, relative to Bernie Sanders. The plaintiffs were supporters of Sanders. The U.S. District Court had ruled against the plaintiffs, so this appeal followed.
