The Florida Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected a petition for a constitutional writ to intervene in a lower court challenge of the state’s new congressional district map.
The court cited a lack of jurisdiction at the current juncture regarding the First District Court of Appeal’s denial of the plaintiffs’ motion, meaning it did not rule on the merits of claims that the newly enacted map is in violation of the Fair Districts Amendment.
