The Court ISSUES A PERMANENT INJUNCTION prohibiting the Defendants from implementing SEA 334 §§ 5.5(d)(f) and prohibiting the Defendants from otherwise removing any Indiana registrant from the list of eligible voters because of a change in residence absent: (1) a request or confirmation in writing directly from the voter that the voter is ineligible or does not wish to be registered; or (2) the NVRA-prescribed process of (a) notifying the voter, (b) giving the voter an opportunity to respond, and (c) then waiting two inactive federal election cycles. A similar ruling was issued in t he related case Indiana State Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, et. al. v. Lawson et al., 1:17-cv-2897-TWP-MPB. The trial and final pretrial conference are hereby VACATED. Final judgment will issue under separate order. (See Order). Signed by Judge Tanya Walton Pratt on 8/24/2020. (MAC)
