    Since the panel left the nasty anti-AR bill in place, the citizenry will have to endure an even longer wait to get relief. They seem to have acted in such a fashion as to push this into the next SCOTUS session, which will further delay the relief from this obviously unConstitutional bill.

    It's not the usual glue-footed slow-walk that the courts prefer to engage in, but it's bad enough. Keep it up another year and a half, which as we've seen approaches lightspeed for the "justice" system, and we could see yet another Prog POTUS looking to fill a few slots on SCOTUS. They're all hoping for an early demise for Justice Thomas, and there's probably already an FBI cell looking for a nutcase to push into full assassin mode.

    If they felt they had time on their side, they could wait for deniability from a Five Eyes action team to help out with the project, but these international intelligence service combined operations games are tricky to get right.

    Nothing is off the table these days, and there's no longer any such thing as "going too far."

    But doesn't someone have to bring the issue TO them in order to act?
    I think they already have the issue in front of them. They have asked for and received briefings. I know they are smart enough to see through the 7CA's ploy to continue deprivation of rights and I am praying they act.

    Really? Can scotus really do anything other then overrule them?

    or send a case back? They did that after bruen and the resistance is strong. Still. Judicial and legislative level.

    scotus doesn’t have an armed enforcement division like the department of education, the EPA, ATF, or your local school district.

    can they disbar? Remove? Resistance judges? Like the Delaware guy? Or every court that let the CCW case go before it got to scotus? Every means / end case after heller?

    The 2nd 7th and 9th districts would be gutted…


    This is not going to end well for the 7th. The question is how bad will the spanking by SCOTUS be and does the 7th really want to be spanked?

    After Amy Coney Barrett asked for response by Naperville to the injunction application, the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals fast tracked hearings for the last week of June. The refusal of SCOTUS to step in at this time is likely because it wants to give the 7th Circuit time to get it right. Assuming the 7th Circuit upholds the ban, that is when SCOTUS is likely to step in with an injunction.

    An interlocutory TRO/PI has always been a long shot but Justice Barrett's asking for briefs did it's job and got the attention of the 7th Circuit, why else would they have fast tracked the proceedings. Thank you Justice Barrett!

    Now, maybe 4CA will declare MD's AWB constitutional so that SCOTUS can finally smack it down.

    Or if 4CA says unconstitutional, then there's a circuit split which SCOTUS would need to resolve.

    One would think that having MD's case granted and vacated would have sent a message that gun bans are dead, but I guess activist judges still gotta be activists.

    It won’t matter. The 4th circuit will hold briefings and then, after the interlocutory TRO/PI has been denied cert by the Supreme Court, sit on the decision. A decision can’t be appealed if it hasn’t been issued.
