It looks like the Ninth Circuit may hear the case en banc[/i] after all. At least one judge on the Ninth Circuit (likely either Judge Kosinski or Judge Bybee) has filed a [i]sua sponte request to hear the case. The court will no vote on whether to hear the case.

The Ninth Circuit is by far the most liberal circuit court, and it's unlikely the case will be even heard,much less reversed. Still, this is interesting.
