That's the Ohio strategy. There just ignoring the court ruling.

Yup. That's the way the Ohio 'non-gerrymandering' law was written. Just drag your feet long enough, and it goes back to the (Republican-leaning) legislature. And then just drag their feet long enough, and those maps get used regardless of legality (they were ruled illegal... 2, 3x over by the state Supreme Court, but no matter!)
