A challenge spearheaded by Michael Newdow to the words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance is once again pending before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Once a three-judge panel is assigned to hear the appeal, the first question it will face concerns the binding effect, if any, of the 9th Circuit's decision in Newdow's favor in the earlier case. And in contrast to the situation surrounding Newdow's prior appearance before the 9th Circuit, this time Newdow reaches the court on the winning side.

A challenge spearheaded by Michael A. Newdow to the words “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance is once again pending before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Unlike when Newdow’s earlier Pledge challenge came before the 9th Circuit, and Newdow was the lone plaintiff, this time Newdow is serving as the attorney for two sets of parents and their minor children who object to the current wording of the Pledge.
