At the Blog of the Legal Times, Todd Ruger reports:

Congressional Republicans have joined in a lawsuit challenging President Barack Obama's recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board in January, a legal fight focused on the constitutional limits of presidential appointment power.

The report notes that the Senate Republicans are represented by Miguel Estrada and the House Republicans are represented by Jay Sekulow, two very big names in constitutional litigation.
