The federal appeals court in Atlanta has decided against jumping into Florida’s red-light-camera logjam, at least for now.

A total of 72 Florida cities, towns and counties lost a preliminary round in Miami federal court, where a proposed class action to attack the traffic program is pending. They lost again Aug. 31 in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, which ruled it would be premature to consider their sovereign immunity defense.
