United States First Circuit


Davidson v. City of Cranston, RI, 16-1692

In an suit challenging a City's election redistricting plan, the District Court's injunction forbidding the City from holding elections based on its 2012 Redistricting Plan and ordering it to prepare a new redistricting plan within thirty days is reversed where the methodology and logic of the Supreme Court's decision in Evenwel v. Abbott, 136 S. Ct. 1120 (2016) compels such a conclusion.
