9th Circuit Extends Cities' Infrastructure Suit Pause Until Jan. 30

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted an FCC motion to extend abeyance on a lawsuit by the League of California Cities challenging the FCC’s June 2020 wireless infrastructure declaratory ruling. Proceedings are stayed until Jan. 30, the court ruled Thursday in case 20-72749. The FCC sought more time to get to five commissioners (see 2211150069). The court has approved multiple previous abeyance requests (see 2207290029) since March 2021.
