Holmes v. Moore

Summary

The court withdrew its prior decision, held that plaintiffs failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that S.B. 824 was enacted with discriminatory intent and produces a meaningful racial disparate impact, and reversed the injunction. It concluded that the trial court improperly shifted the burden of proof, failed to presume legislative good faith, and relied on findings made under an incorrect legal standard. The court remanded for dismissal with prejudice.
