FCC Commissioner Mike O'Rielly suggested during a recent discussion with reporters that the Justice Department lawsuit seeking to block California's new net neutrality law may not be the last, and that state laws that impose net neutrality requirements through the state procurement process could end up in courts.

Jerry Brown (D.) on Sept. 30 and promptly subjected to a Justice Department lawsuit on behalf of the FCC (see separate story).
