CJack 138 Posted June 30, 2022 One down, million violations of US Constitution by NJ to go. https://www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docketfiles/html/public/20-1507.html Petition GRANTED. Judgment VACATED and case REMANDED for further consideration in light of New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v. Bruen, 597 U. S. ___ (2022). The questions presented are: 1. Whether a blanket, retrospective, and confiscatory law prohibiting ordinary law-abiding citizens from possessing magazines in common use violates the Second Amendment. 2. Whether a law dispossessing citizens without compensation of property that was lawfully acquired and long possessed without incident violates the Takings Clause. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It means the circuit decision is vacated and they’re told to reconsider based on Bruen. So one of two things: 1) they find it unconstitutional based on Bruen or 2) they come up with even more elastic logic to uphold the ban. The question I have is if ANJRPC can refile for an injunction based on the remanding. That would provide relief while the circuit sits on the case 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EdF 323 Posted June 30, 2022 They aren't going to get injunctive relief and I wouldn't buy 17's for my Glock under an injunctive program. The problem is that they would be creating repeat and unnecessary injury if they decide to support the ban again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CJack 138 Posted June 30, 2022 We (NJ) have to hammer courts under the "Common Use" provision non stop. Also reason for every law abiding to exercise ALL of the 2A.. buy buy buy.. I am waiting for the day when SCOTUS rules that anything Govt uses in their day-to-day business is "Common Use". Local PD / Non Military has SBRs - Common Use. Local PD/Non Military has bazookas - Common Use. Suppressors - Common Use. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if a favorable ruling there immediately and directly helps us. They are in a different Circuit Court. However, note the below FPC case.

SCOTUS officially told the lower court they were wrong. What was done was the judicial equivalent of "Well everything you said was stupid and misguided, but I understand why you were confused. Since we added more clarity, go come up with a new decision." Which means reach a different conclusion, or try to reach the same conclusion by a different path.

I assume this NJ case would benefit from a favorable ruling above. Not necessarily, circuit courts disagree sometimes, and that's what SCOTUS is for. However, sometimes you can draw conclusions about other circuits potential disposition towards a case based on where the respective circuits fall on a given topic. MD is in the 4th, and they are arguably less awful than the 2nd, 3rd, and 9th. Both the 3rd (us) and the 9th historically like to rubber stamp the state by using means balancing less strict than even intermediate scrutiny which which was required by Heller. If you read the reasoning, it's basically rational basis minus the need to prove their is any merit to the belief that what the government has demanded has any influence on the outcome they say it does.

I don't know how they've not yet been required to clear the bench and start over with smarter justices. This year, 16 of their rulings went up to the Supreme Court. 15 were overturned. Still, a better average than in 1985 when they had a stunning 25 of 26 rulings overturned by the Supreme Court. Their average reversal rate over the last 15 year? 79% So yeah, a monkey flipping a coin would do statistically much better than the 29 esteemed justices of the 9th circuit.

bennj 215 Posted July 3, 2022 I'm confused (a regular occurrence). Does this mean that Murphy stops ccw in it's tracks by adding all kinds of restrictions, fees, training requirements, sensitive areas, etc. regardless of what Thomas alluded to not doing those things? Does this mean any lawsuits regarding such have to wait to be heard by SCOTUS? Does this mean that at my current age of 65 I may never be able to ccw in NJ?

He’s certainly trying to. 16 minutes ago, bennj said: Does this mean any lawsuits regarding such have to wait to be heard by SCOTUS? Yes. It means new lawsuits to challenge the new rules. They don’t go directly to scotus though. Start with the lower courts first. In theory those courts should use Bruen as a guide and nuke them there. In theory. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bennj 215 Posted July 3, 2022 Thanks for the info voyager9, but that's what I'm afraid of. Lower courts could give a flip about Bruen if there are no judicial consequences in doing so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does this mean any lawsuits regarding such have to wait to be heard by SCOTUS? Does this mean that at my current age of 65 I may never be able to ccw in NJ? Here is a good take on the situation from a thread on ar15.com about NY CCW restrictions but applies to N.J. as well: "What you are seeing is what has happened in every other state that has passed shall-issue concealed carry. Not to the extent NY is going but similar. The people inconvenienced will complain and changes will be made. Then lawsuits will happen and then more changes are made. Then as people adjust to the idea of "people walking around carrying hidden guns" more changes will occur. My state has had concealed carry for decades and we are still tweaking the law." "Back in 2000 when Michigan was trying to go from may-issue to shall-issue we had a state level pro-gun organization trying to kill the bill for the exact same reasons you mentioned. The people with connections had permits and very few restrictions. They threw a fit that going to shall-issue would result in a more involved process, a higher fee, and more restrictions on where they could carry. They had the "I got mine, fuck everyone else" attitude that you seem to have. Shall issue passed, barely. Counties like Wayne County, where Detroit is, dug their feet in and refused to issue any permits for almost a year. Multiple lawsuits had to be filed against them. The legislature has gone back many times to tweak the law, remove restrictions, and make other changes to improve things". "Baby steps, just like how the Dems take away our rights, is how you get the restrictions removed. The big hurdle is getting shall-issue allowed. That is still a huge win for NY. Then you go back and get the restrictions removed". . 2 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are looking at a 1-2 year horizon minimum, but the good news is that there's already a location case in one of the circuits already. Other good news is that you have to wait that long for a decision, but you do not have to wait that long for an injunction. So if they much with the statute, an injunction can be sought in a much shorter span of time. And we are 3rd circuit, and the judge assigned to the 3rd for such things is Alito. I suspect NJ understands this. Which is why they are trying to work within the existing statute. If they do like NY and write up a new statute, they can wind up with an injunction that leaves them with no carry law or significant portions of statute mooted until a decision. (This is essentially what happened in Chicago when they tried to avoid complying with their carry ban). NY is being more ballsy because their justice for such a thing is Sotomayor. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
