Michigan Redistricting Extension

In re: Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission

Petition filed by the Michigan secretary of state and Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission seeking an extension of the deadline for Michigan to redraw its state legislative and congressional maps. The release of census data needed to redraw the maps was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Michigan Supreme Court declined to grant the extension, finding that it would be premature to grant relief ahead of the map deadline.
