Burbank v. Evnen

Summary

The court held that the appeal was not moot because the Secretary could still recertify the primary ballot and provide meaningful relief. It further held that the statutory 7-day objection deadline applies to objections by the Secretary as well as other parties, making Burbank's filing form valid by operation of law and requiring the Secretary to include her on the ballot. The court reversed and remanded with directions to issue a peremptory writ of mandamus.
