Sixth Circuit announces the composition of the three-judge panel assigned to hear and decide appeal from a district court’s dismissal of claims challenging the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act: The name of the case is Thomas More Law Center v. Obama, No. 10-2388 (6th Cir.), and the case is scheduled for oral argument on Wednesday, June 1, 2011 at 1:30 p.m.

The three-judge panel assigned to the case consists of Circuit Judges Boyce F. Martin, Jr. and Jeffrey S. Sutton and Senior U.S. District Judge James L. Graham of the Southern District of Ohio, sitting by designation.

Judge Martin was nominated to the Sixth Circuit by President Carter. Judge Sutton was nominated to the Sixth Circuit by President George W. Bush. And Judge Graham was nominated to the Southern District of Ohio by President Reagan.

According to the Sixth Circuit’s announcement, which appears on that court’s home page, “The oral argument will be available for listening or downloading on the court’s website approximately one hour after the conclusion of the argument.”
