5th Circuit Grants FCC Motion Suspending Briefing Schedule on Molaks’ Petition

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted the FCC’s motion suspending the briefing schedule on Maurine and Matthew Molak's petition for review to vacate the commission’s Oct. 25 declaratory ruling that authorizes E-rate program funding for Wi-Fi on school buses until the court resolves the FCC’s motion to dismiss the Molaks’ petition (see 2402070002), said a clerk’s order Thursday (docket 23-60641). But the 5th Circuit, in a separate clerk’s order Thursday, denied the FCC’s unopposed motion for extra time to reply to the Molaks’ opposition to the motion to dismiss (see 2402120064).
