The US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on Wednesday remanded a case brought by the Libertarian Party of Georgia challenging the state’s ballot-access law to the lower court for failing to address the constitutionality of the law.
A judge for the US District Court for the Northern District of Georgia had granted a motion for summary judgment in favor of the Georgia Secretary of State, concluding it did not need to apply the Supreme Court’s test for the constitutionality of ballot-access measures, established in Anderson v. Celebreeze.
