Citizens United Case Returns to Federal District Court
by Amanda Adams*, 4/8/2008
After the Supreme Court decided it will not hear the Citizens United case opposing disclosure of those paying for political ads in the weeks before an election (Citizens United v. FEC), the case now returns to a three judge federal district court. Citizens United hopes to have a decision that will impact the current campaign. BNA Money and Politics ($$) reports that "both sides expect the case to be appealed and ultimately to make its way back to the Supreme Court for any final ruling on the issue of disclosure of those funding political messages."
