@professortax Well, first court since Windsor. (Two judges since - Judges Kelly & Niemeyer at 10th & 4th, respectively - have as well.) -
@professortax Argh, first *federal* court since Windsor, that is. Tricky, tricky, tricky. -
Yes some state courts after Windsor were ok. This was first fed court. But a Houston fed court did funky things yesterday.

@rickhasen Do you know the 5th circuit is the most conservative and was the circuit everyone agrees will uphold ban?@chrisgeidner -
@MaryFordgb@chrisgeidner yeah that was my point
