Overview

Dozens of cases are pending as a result of 2011 redistricting, and some of them have the potential to be “blockbusters.” Could states be scrambling back to the proverbial drawing board after a major federal court decision?  Jason Torchinsky, attorney and redistricting expert from Virginia, looks at pending legal challenges and explores the possibilities of a major ruling.
