Florida Supreme Court Considers Redistricting Amendments
News summary

The Florida Supreme Court is deliberating whether the state's Fair Districts Amendments, aimed at protecting minority voting rights, can survive Governor Ron DeSantis' redistricting efforts, which dismantled a historically Black congressional district. Chief Justice Carlos Muñiz suggested that striking down these protections might invalidate the entire amendment, affecting future elections. Meanwhile, Florida State University (FSU) and the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) are engaged in a legal battle over media rights contracts and a substantial exit fee, with disputes about whether the case should be heard in Florida or North Carolina. The ACC argues the case belongs in North Carolina where it is headquartered, while FSU claims sovereign immunity and insists on Florida jurisdiction. Both sides presented their arguments before a three-judge panel, which has yet to issue a ruling.
