[UPDATED evening of August 1] Petition for certiorari filed in King, the Fourth Circuit ACA "exchange" case; and Government files petition for rehearing en banc in the D.C. Circuit in Halbig

The plaintiff in the Fourth Circuit King case has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari.  Meanwhile, the government has petitioned the court of appeals in the D.C. Circuit for rehearing en banc.  [UPDATE:  Within hours of receiving the petition, the court of appeals ordered the appellants to file a response to the rehearing petition within 15 days (which presumably will mean 17 days, or Monday, August 18), not to exceed 15 pages.]
