The Nevada government has asked the U.S. Supreme Court for more time to respond to the Republican Party’s brief in the U.S. Supreme Court in Republican Party of Nevada v Miller, 13-442. The issue is whether the Ninth Circuit erred when it said that neither the Republican Party, nor its candidates for presidential elector in 2012, nor the plaintiff-voters, have standing to challenge Nevada’s law that puts “none of these candidates” on the ballot for statewide office.

The Court had originally set the state’s deadline as November 8, but now the Court has granted the state’s request for more time, and the state response is due December 9.
