Supreme Court In No Rush To Weigh Trump Election Lawsuits By By
Matthew Santoni Law360 (January 11, 2021, 1:05 PM EST) The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday said it would not speed up appeals challenging the 2020 presidential election results in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, effectively ending bids by President Donald Trump and his supporters to undo those states results before President-elect Joe Biden s inauguration.
Monday s order list said without comment or dissent that the justices denied expedited consideration of petitions for review in seven suits across the five states, meaning the court would not fast-track its decision on whether to hear the cases let alone decide them before the constitutionally mandated end of Trump s term Jan. 20.
