Politico: “In a surprise move that legal experts said added an unexpected threat to the 2010 health care law, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals asked both sides to file additional legal arguments about who — if anyone — has standing to appeal the December lower court ruling. The request suggests that the judges who will hear the case — the three-judge panel has not been made public — could toss out the appeal on procedural grounds. In that case, the lower court ruling would stand.”
“The implications of such a decision for the future of the Affordable Care Act are difficult to parse without more information, according to legal experts. But most suggested that it wouldn’t bode well for supporters of Obamacare.”
