Virginia Does Not Ask for Rehearing en Banc, in Case over Petitioner Residency

As previously reported, on May 29, the Fourth Circuit struck down Virginia’s law banning out-of-state circulators. The 14 days for the state to possibly have asked for a rehearing en banc has now elapsed, and the state did not ask for reconsideration. The case was Libertarian Party of Virginia v Judd. Of course it is always possible the state will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse the decision. The time limit for that is three months.
