Nationwide injunction and 4 - 4 split

First, as a technical matter, if the Supreme Court evenly divides, the decision of the 5th Circuit affirming Hanen’s injunction would remain in place.

Any more hearing until June?

When will we know the judgement?

If it is 4-4 then this means it can be brought up again and the next judge will be appointed by Obama. This means 5-4 in our favor. It might not be in this term though.
