We've gotten several inquiries about the briefs filed by defendant-appellees last Friday in Vieth v. Jubelirer, which will be the U.S. Supreme Court's first partisan-gerrymandering case since Davis v. Bandemer in 1986.  These briefs (along with our side's August 29 filings) are now available in .pdf format at this link:  http://www.jenner.com/news/news.asp#772.  Our reply brief will be filed (and posted on the same Web site) next month, and oral argument is scheduled for Wednesday, December 10.

If you have any questions about the case, my contact info is listed below.

Thanks,

Sam
