Republican Attorney General Pam Bondi has asked a federal court to dismiss a case filed by two members of Congress that attempts to strike down a recently passed amendment to the Florida Constitution changing the way congressional districts are drawn.


Bondi filed the motion in the federal Southern District Court this week, arguing that the court does not have jurisdiction over the case filed by U.S. Reps. Corrine Brown, D-Jacksonville and Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Miami.


Amendment 6, seeking to prevent lawmakers from drawing districts that favor themselves or political parties, was passed this fall by Florida voters.
