U.S. District Court Judge David Nuffer will hold a hearing in Maxfield v Henderson, 4:23cv-112, on Monday, December 11, at 1:30 p.m. This is the lawsuit filed by supporters of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., over the Utah independent presidential petition deadline of January 8.

In 2017, Judge Nuffer struck down a Utah election law that said the petition deadline for new parties in special elections should be in May, in United Utah Party v Cox. The ruling allowed the United Utah Party to participate in a special congressional election on November 7, 2017.
