If the Judicial Filibuster were truly unconstitutional, then why hasn't it been challenged in the courts?

It seems that with a 5-4 majority on the Supreme Court, the GOP would win this one, like Bush v. Gore.

Judicial filibusters are an attempt by a desperate party to cling to power but since the Senate gets to make its own rules, I don't think they are unconstitutional
