No action on the other petitions
Just to confirm, the Court took no action on the three other pending petitions, those in Thomas More Law Center v. Obama (No. 11-117), Liberty University v. Geithner (No. 11-438), or Virginia v. Sebelius (No. 11-420). In all likelihood, the Court will simply hold these petitions until June, and then dispose of them in a manner consistent with its holding in the Florida case (meaning either they will deny cert or grant, vacate, and remand).
