Final Brief Filed in Libertarian Party New Hampshire Ballot Access Case

The Libertarian Party recently filed this response brief in Libertarian Party of New Hampshire v Gardner, in the First Circuit.  The issues are whether states must let unqualified parties use a stand-in presidential candidate on petitions, and whether an unqualified party has any control over use of its name on the ballot.  The case is Libertarian Party of New Hampshire v Gardner, 10-1360.

The Libertarian Party’s first brief in the First Circuit in this case is here.  A link to the state’s brief is inside this blog post.  The next step in the case is for the First Circuit to set a hearing date.
