On July 5, U.S. District Court Judge Mark E. Walker expedited the lawsuit Jones v DeSantis, n.d., 4:19cv-300. This is the case filed by the ACLU on June 28 against the new law that says ex-felons can’t register to vote if they have any unpaid restitution, court costs, or fines. A status conference will be held on July 19, which will set the dates for the trial and for various briefs. See this story.

Judge Walker also has the case in which the Democratic National Committee challenges the Florida law on order of candidates on the ballot. That case has a trial that starts July 15. Jacobson v Lee, 4:18cv-262.
