4th circuit is trying to out circus the 9th these days. Don't count on the full panel taking up anything that requires them to side with the plain language of the constitution. They already stomped on the 3 judge panel who were going to find the MD AWB unconstitutional.

To answer your question, it would not, unless the full panel holds that ruling in abayence pending appeal to SCOTUS.
But your question should be, will the entire panel find it Unconstitutional, to which I would answer.....NO.

Maybe.

Whomever loses will appeal by filing a petition for a writ of certiorari with the Supreme Court.


A type of writ, meant for rare use, by which an appellate court decides to review a case at its discretion. The word certiorari comes from Law Latin and means "to be more fully informed." A writ of certiorari orders a lower court to deliver its record in a case so that the higher court may review it. The U.S. Supreme Court uses certiorari to select most of the cases it hears. The writ of certiorari is a common law writ, which may be abrogated or controlled entirely by statute or court rules.
