The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit has ordered Missouri to use a new congressional map that the Supreme Court had already blocked. Both Above the Law articles report the same core development, though they frame it with different emphasis.

The first piece criticizes the move as defiance of the Supreme Court and goes so far as to raise the possibility of impeachment, while also speculating whether Justice Gorsuch will issue a separate opinion rebuking lower-court disobedience. The second piece, a morning legal news roundup, notes that this is likely the third time the dispute will arrive at the Supreme Court.

Neither article offers the Eighth Circuit's legal rationale for the order, so the reason for the appeals court's action remains unclear from these reports.
