The Florida Constitution has greater protections against gerrymandering than federal law, which is why this is in state court rather than federal court. Once it reaches a conclusion with the Florida Supreme Court, that will be the end.

Their complaint at the start alleged violations of the Florida Constitution so I doubt anyone will appeal to SCOTUS by the end of it.
