Maggard v. State
Missouri voters seeks a court order suspending use of the legislature’s new congressional map until voters have a chance to approve or reject that map in a referendum. A trial court found the dispute nonjusticiable — for lack of standing and ripeness and under the political question doctrine — but alternatively also found suspension improper on the merits. The voters have appealed.
