  38. The Supreme Court acknowledged that the case was contradictory since a challenge filed before a committee's last meeting of the session would not be allowed to proceed because there would still be a chance for committee action and a challenge filed after a committee's last meeting of the session probably wouldn't be heard until after the end of the session when the Senate rules had already expired.
