Allen v. Milligan · ¶26

Back in the District Court, plaintiffs immediately sought an emergency hearing following this Court's order. The District Court held one, and less than three weeks later, it issued a preliminary injunction after “fully revisit[ing] the merits of each claim” brought by plaintiffs. 833 F. Supp. 3d 1222, 1246 (2026). In a thorough 78-page opinion, it explained that its prior decision on intentional racial discrimination was “undisturbed by Callais” and that, even after “draw[ing] every inference . . . in the Legislature's favor,” the record compelled the conclusion that the State intentionally entrenched the racial discrimination that the District Court previously found and this Court affirmed. Id., at 1247, 1248. From here, the District Court reinstated the remedial map that this Court vacated.
