5th Circuit Denies Coalition's Motion to Intervene in USF Challenge

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals denied a joint motion from the Benton Institute for Broadband & Society, Center for Media Justice and National Digital Inclusion Alliance to intervene on behalf of the FCC in Consumers' Research's new challenge of the USF Q4 2023 contribution factor (see 2310030069). An order posted Monday in case 23-60525 was denied "without prejudice" should the groups want to file amicus curiae.
