Just an FYI: The 2017 for 2016 tax filing is Tuesday 4/18 this year. The 15th is a Saturday. Normally, it would move to Monday the 17, but that is Emancipation holiday in DC. So you have a few extra days to file.
Legislating from the bench
I responded to a Gura tweet recently where he rightly pointed out that the Executive must abide by (even bad) Judicial decisions. Our system of government depends on separation / balance of power. I agree with this principal.
The question I asked back ( and didn't get an answer) was Judicial Legislation seems to take hours. Corrective actions seem to be measured in years.
This seems out of balance to me. If anyone can enlighten me on how this is supposed to work, I would appreciate it.

Sufficiently pissed off and not corrupt Congress is the way "its supposed to work"
With Peruta at Scotus I don't expect to see anything until it's disposed of, one way or another.
yep.
The SCOTUS has not accepted, nor granted cert to Peruta. DC is stalling just to stall.
No sense in upsetting the status quo. That would only let us start the appeal.
Think you mean the DC Circuit is stalling, not the city government.
DC Circuit isn't known for having speedy opinions, and, the delay many times points to a split decision.

It most certainly is a split decision. IIRC, Judge Henderson was on this panel and she most certainly would side with the District. And she isn't very fast in her opinions.
Fingers crossed it is her long winded dissent from a grant on the PI.

Hoping for the best for this one. It is a tough challenge to get by but we got this.

Legally it should not. I don't think.

Not the result. The panel might have been waiting on the cert decision in Peruta and Binderup. A decision in either case could have provided guidance. With cert denied, there is no longer any reason to wait.
