DV2020/DV2021 Update: Today, 11 judges of the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit have issued an order denying the petition for rehearing en banc. Unfortunately, this is the end of the road for Gomez, Goodluck, and Rai lawsuits, and it means all DV-2020 and DV-2021 journeys are now over. Many of our DV-2020 and DV-2021 clients have suffered greatly. You all deserve a better outcome than this. I am very sorry and sad. -curtis

In DV news...Morgan Miles is no longer the Director of the Kentucky Consular Center.

DV2020/DV2021 update: Last night, to comply with the court clerk’s request, attorneys for class members and plaintiffs filed a certificate listing all the attorneys and their clients. With the exhibit listing plaintiff names, the filing is almost 1,700 pages, and almost identical to a filing we made when we filed the original appeal brief. This filing was only a formality of procedure, and not consequential. - curtis

FAQ:Why is my name not on the first name of this court filing? Answer: The names on the first page are just the first 50 +/- names in each lawsuit and not at all relevant. All 25,000+ plaintiff names were not entered in the court’s electronic filing system as that was not required or allowed. -curtis

Update in Goodluck/Gomez, et al. (DV2020 and DV2021 litigation): Attorneys for class members and plaintiffs have filed the attached Petition for Rehearing En Banc with the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. We will share developments as we have them. Thanks. 🙏 - curtis

The final draft of the motion for en banc review is being reviewed by all the attorneys again now, and will be filed with the court at approximately 5pm PT / 8pm ET by Gomez counsel. As I am in Spain and it is midnight here and I am exhausted, so I will not be able to download and share the court filing until tomorrow. However, I promise to share tomorrow. There is no reason to message me about this. Thank you. 🙏 -curtis

DV2020/DV2021 update: Many of you are asking when the motion for en banc review will be filed. (that’s where we ask the full circuit court to reconsider the opinion of the 3-judge panel.) That motion will be filed this Friday, August 9. We will share the filing after it is filed. Thanks for your patience. 🙏
