U.S. District Court Judge Percy Anderson has scheduled a trial for October 16, at 9 a.m., in California Justice Committee v Bowen, central district, 2:12cv3956. This is the case over the constitutionality of California’s January petition deadline for newly-qualifying parties. The judge had already enjoined this deadline, in May 2012, on the basis that the deadline is probably unconstitutional. The case had been filed in May by the Justice Party and the Constitution Party.
