The U.S. District Court in Richmond, Virginia, had been expecting to hear Lux v Judd on January 17, but the hearing has been postponed until January 25, at 2 p.m. Lux v Judd, filed in 2010, concerns the Virginia law that petitioners can’t work outside their home U.S. House district, if they are working on a petition for a U.S. House candidate. Lux, an independent candidate, was kept off the ballot in 2010 because of the circulator residency requirement, but his lawsuit is still alive.

Probably the hearing was postponed so that everyone can see what happens in the presidential petitioner residency lawsuit, filed by Rick Perry, now pending in the 4th circuit.
