Gill v. Whitford (16-1161)
Question
Did the district court err in holding that it had the authority to hear a statewide challenge to Wisconsin's redistricting plan, rather than requiring a district-by-district analysis?
Did the district court err in holding that the redistricting plan was an unconstitutional gerrymander?
Did the district court use an incorrect test for a gerrymander?
Are defendants entitled to present evidence that they would have prevailed under the gerrymander test actually used by the district court?
Are partisan gerrymandering claims justiciable?
