Forum shopping is usually part of the deal anyway...
But wouldn't it end up at the Supreme Court anyway? Can you see it not being appealed, unless the armed forces have had a big change of heart lately?

I see this as being one of the issues that will go away as one generation of leadership replaces another and that the policy itself will change. Until then, what could you point to at the federal level that the policy is unconstitutional?

I understand what you mean about the 9th circuit, but would the case really stop there? It might be fun to imagine the bigger cases that could keep the supreme court too busy.
