The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has ordered a rehearing en banc regarding case No. 22-40043, initially decided on April 7, 2022.

Biden Jr. and various federal officials in their official capacities. This decision follows a request for a poll on the petition for rehearing, which garnered majority support from active circuit judges. As a result, the previous panel opinion has been vacated, and the court will fix a date for oral argument. The Clerk will provide a schedule for supplemental briefs.
