Benisek v. Lamone

Decided June 18, 2018. The Court ruled per curiam — an unsigned opinion of the Court.

Docket 17-333 · 585 U.S. ___ (2018)

Because the balance of equities and the public interest tilt against the preliminary injunction motion of plaintiffs claiming that a Maryland congressional district was gerrymandered to retaliate against them for their political views, the District Court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion.
