We now have an April Fool’s Day Persuader Rule challenge (but it’s real). The National Federation of Independent Business leads this group of plaintiffs, and has filed suit in federal court in Texas, which is in the Fifth Circuit. The other two lawsuits were filed in Arkansas and Minnesota, both in the Eighth Circuit.

Here’s our scorecard:

PERSUADER RULE SCORECARD

March 30Associated Builders v. Perez (E.D. Ark.)

March 31Worklaw Network v. USDOL (D. Minn.)

April 1NFIB v. Perez (W.D. Texas)

At least we get a couple of days off – what will Monday bring?
