Docket No.	Op. Below	Argument	Opinion	Vote	Author	Term
16-575	5th Cir.	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	OT 16

Issue: (1) Whether the Constitution's equal protection and fundamental right to travel rights will tolerate a state benefit program that creates fixed and permanent distinctions between similarly-situated residents based on their length or timing of residence in the state; and (2) whether Texas' Hazelwood Act's "fixed-point residency requirement" therefore offends the Constitution.
