On February 20, the Democratic National Committee filed its brief in the Eleventh Circuit in Wilding v Democratic National Committee Services, 17-14194. The brief says this case “is an improper attempt to forge the federal courts into a political weapon to be used by individuals who are unhappy with how a political party selected its candidate in a presidentia campaign.

The case had been filed in 2016 by Democrats who had contributed to the Democratic Party, and who are or were supporters of Bernie Sanders. They charged that the party broke its own rules and tilted the presidential nomination contest toward Hillary Clinton.
