A U.S. District Court in Little Rock, Arkansas, will hold a trial in Green Party of Arkansas v Daniels during the week of June 28-July 2. The issue is the state’s requirement that parties must poll 3% of the vote for President, in presidential years, or be removed from the ballot.
The case has been re-assigned to a brand new federal judge, Price Marshall, Jr.
The Green Party is petitioning for a place on the November 2010 ballot. Arkansas lets each party set its own 3-month petitioning period. The Green Party chose the period March 20-June 18, 2010. When the trial is held, the party will have submitted its petition, but it is unlikely that the state will have had time to check the signatures yet. The requirement is 10,000 signatures.
Separate is NOT equal.

Demo Rep has had his own two ballot access lawsuits long ago against certain Michigan ballot access restrictions. He was his own attorney and he made the Brown v Board of Education arguments, and he still lost.
