All three briefs have now been filed in the 5th circuit in Libertarian Party v Dardenne, the case over whether the Louisiana Secretary of State acted improperly when he kept Bob Barr and Brian Moore off the November 2008 ballot for president (Brian Moore was the Socialist Party nominee). The case is being handled for the political parties by Law Professor Mark Brown, who is an expert on the question of why the U.S. Constitution, Article II, does not permit any authority except state legislatures from creating rules that keep anyone off the ballot for president.
