As of now, the Court has five petitions from which to choose, if it is ready to choose. In addition to the Louisiana and Michigan petitions, there are filings testing the bans in Kentucky, Ohio, and Tennessee. In addition, state officials in South Carolina said this week that they will be filing their own petition, asking the Justices to leap-frog an appeal the state now has pending at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. The South Carolina filing has not yet been made.
