Update on Right to Carry appeals case, Almeida Vs. Sussex Co.

Recommended Posts

yes there's definitely a few we can easily swing. But we need 9 seats to take over the assembly. I think we can get a few but not 9 we need.

Did you include Donna Simon on that list? She lost her seat due to a low turn out in Legislative Dist 16.I have worked for her in the last two election cycles and she is very pro gun.

I'm totally confused.  How did this case go from being funded by SAF, which is as good as someone could possibly hope for, to being dropped and given to new attorneys to be challenged in Federal Court?  What in the world happened?  Anyone have a link to the court docs?

This might provide some insight.

The NJ lawyer that was hired, didn't file the appeal to the federal court for reasons unknown. Is basically the thing that kept the SAF, from taking the case all the way to the SCOTUS. There are theories as to why that didn't happen.

I'm having trouble processing that.

I'm confused as well. Don't appeals need to be filed within a prescribed time period after a ruling? Was the appeal not filed within that period, or did the attorney inform the client that he was no longer going to represent him?

Didn't inform. And didn't file the appeal like was discussed with the client from my understanding. Actually he's still waiting to hear anything back from the attorney. Just being ignored is what happened. Not even the common decency to say "I'm not doing that for you". Pretty much how it went down.

I'd be very hesitant to contact an attorney for representation that doesn't file an appeal as discussed, and breaks off contact without even an indication of why. Imagine if it was a criminal case?

There are some serious almost-allegations made here.  If I'm understanding what's almost being said, A well known attorney who's livelihood is based on being known as THE Pro-2A lawyer, colluded with the state association of the NRA to intentionally sabotage a client's case in order to protect NJ's anti-2A laws and possibly anti-2A politicians?

 

Sounds like a novel.

I'd say smells like something more than sounds like something but that works too.

Sounds about right to me but not so much the anti protection part (God I hope not!)  but I also think there was a concern about causing any turbulence for CC & his political aspirations & impending CC "reforms" that of course would be/were negated buy the Dems before the ink was dry.

AFAIK the guy is a lawyer. just a lawyer. Good at self promotion via speeches, books some time on GFHR etc. and works a part of law in NJ that is unfortunatly specifically lucrative here. Not meaning anything disparaging but I dont think of him as a 2A activest and would welcome any insight otherwise, never understood why he was the "go to" guy and revered as such.

Believe it or not...

 

The ones I personally blame the MOST are not necessarily the politicians (tho they deserve blame too those SWINE.) I blame the, VOTERS. Multitudes of brainwashed coward sheep blue-lever pullers in this upside down state.

      What are your thoughts? I think we're going to Washington!
    • By Mrs. Peel
      Yesterday, I attended Lehigh Valley Sporting Clays in Coplay, PA for the first time! I went with @Mrs.Zeke to their NRA Women on Target event - more on that later. I feel very grateful to have attended (and, again, thanks to @Ms. 12 Gauge for letting me know about the event!) Here's my feedback: 
      Sporting Clays: Yikes, what a fun shooting sport!!  If you don't know anything about it, you are moving through a course and at each station there's clays being thrown different ways (varying direction, speed, even a type called a rabbit that rolls along the ground). It's challenging. And for even more challenge, they have 3 defined courses there - beginner, intermediate and advanced. So think of it like a golf course - each station is like a hole - they even have gas-powered golf carts you can rent, or little scooters (I think those are free) and little wheelie carts (also free). The operation is year-round. 
      LVSC: I haven't been to other sporting clays ranges, so I can't compare per se, but I can say this one was really "atmospheric" - and as a lover of all things Victorian, it was just my cup of tea.  It's set in a long-abandoned 1800's quarry operation. So, the old, roofless, dilapidated buildings have been taken over by trees and undergrowth - but they still hold a unique beauty (the great masonry, old arched window frames, etc. - it was like some of those photos from urban explorers who enter abandoned sites). It must look amazing in fall or after a fresh snow! Even better, one station we were at is located right over water (presumably, the old quarry pit). So, you're standing on this little covered deck, looking out across a sparkling body of water, with cliffs opposite you, trees above that and a perfect blue sky up above. Wow. Hey, did I mention it's a GREAT-LOOKING place? (LOL) Much of the course, blessedly, was in shade. And all the little stations have roofs so you've always got a little spot of shade on a hot day. The main building where you sign in was large, nicely air-conditioned (helpful yesterday of all days), well-appointed, kind of a rustic hunting lodge vibe, but very modern and clean, too (including a nice clean ladies room with the de-lead soap, etc.) The staff were all very friendly - and our instructor, Bob Broderick, was fantastic! I recommend him highly. A lot of things "clicked" for me yesterday in terms of understanding the process - that's the power of a good instructor! Here's their website: https://www.lvsclays.com/ 
      NRA Women on Target: The NRA and their partner ranges really do a great job on these events! They are designed to attract women to the shooting sports, so they're quite literally giving stuff away. This deal was so slammin' - it was impossible to pass up! FIFTY BUCKS covered the entire afternoon program. They initially had us in a room  for about an hour where we filled out paperwork and had some classroom instruction about safety, etc. We then picked up the included cold drinks, eye and ear pro, plus a loaner shotgun and instructor for each group... our little sub-group had 4 women and 2 golf carts (carts also included!!)… and we were on the course for a good 2 hours at least... with each one of us getting one-on-one attention and guidance from the instructor at each station (that alone was worth more than 50 bucks!!). Afterwards, we returned to the same room where they had snacks, more ice-cold beverages, certificates and "swag bags" which, best of all, included a coupon for 10% off of a private lesson (expires end of this year).  I have no idea what that would package would cost normally, but looking at the website, I'm guessing at least 125 or more each?
      So, if you haven't been to LVSC yet, I urge you to check it out! It's LOTS of fun. I know CNJFO is doing a fundraiser there this month - I'm sure you'd have a fantastic time AND you'd be contributing to the 2A cause at the same time. So, I'll add that link here: 
      In addition, I plan to get on the email list for their NRA Women on Target events (apparently, LVSC sponsors about 3 a year). Though I can't go again (it's for sporting clays first-timers only), I intend to advertise them in the future under our "events" section... so you can all pass the word to women shooters you know. Believe me, anyone who went would enjoy it. All the ladies who went yesterday (I'd say it was about 15-20) had a real blast!

      For me the only one that really hurts is Delta/United since they only game in town for the NY/NJ area. Maybe Metlife and Chubb too.
      Mods please move if posted in wrong section.
