"Everyone ! Everyone ! Spread The WORD..

 

Nick Purpura's case, or shall I say his filing for his case to be Re-Heard for cert, was granted....and now is DISTRIBUTED for Conference for January 5th 2018.....this doesn't mean it was granted Cert. it just means they will ( look at his case "again") to see if they should great Cert. This ""COULD"" be big news...Stay turned.... If possible we need to support Purpura, Not sure how, but if anyone has Ideas, lets hear them. letters to the SCOTUS asking them grant Cert? IDK but he needs HELP...maybe somehow we can get the 23 A.G. from the state like want HR38 to pass to file a amicus brief...( Jay Factor ) Case Numbers: (16-3173) Docket #17-280"

Personally I would love to see a comeuppance for the state by way of a SCOTUS ruling. But, does SCOTUS even entertain letters/appeals from people? No offense intended, but I don't feel comfortable with the highest court in the land bowing to public pressure. The reason, and I think it's a good one, is that the pendulum swings both ways. Case in point, when the Senate changed the rules under Reid to pass Obama care. Now every time there's a critical vote that the R's really want, that specter rears it's ugly head. There are severe consequences to changing long standing tradition. I want my 2nd amendment rights restored here, but I want my Supreme Court to be completely impartial and originalist. Again, that sort of thing can backfire in a heartbeat.

Capt14K,

I've been somewhat skeptical of SAPPA's action and legal writings since I first became aware of them, but I do believe their goal is to help the RKBA cause in NJ, so I don't go out of my way to disparage their efforts.

That bulletin board you linked above seems to be very anti-Trump/anti-RKBA in general, so I'm not surprised that they're taking any and every opportunity to take shots at the SAPPA action.

Maybe Purpura is a crackpot, maybe he isn't, but since his efforts seem to be aimed at increasing gun rights in NJ, perhaps you could stop trying to diminish him.

Actually I didn't read the bulletin board just the last post that mentioned what was happening with the SCOTUS link. No clue as to what the site is, it was the first Google search result.

 

Fred2 posted the direct SCOTUS link so I removed the link I had.

 

With that being said I have lost all faith in this action. I supported it at first. Now I think it is either a money grab or insanity. Either way it is DOA.

I have to support the SAPPA guys.
If this gets heard, it could blow NJ's laws out of the water.
I understand the feeling. My advice is don't waste your money. He just reapplied and they will simply deny again. If they don't deny I will donate myself. This will be the 5th or 6th time Peruta has filed with SCOTUS. He also filed as a birther.

Forgive me but I'm new to this Peruta case.  But I Googled him (link below) and this reads that he was never denied carry and is basing his case on "what if" this happens and "what if" that happens.  Am I behind or has he since been denied?  Has he since been detained or arrested for a silly NJ gun law?  I hope so.  Because you can't have a case on "what if".  Can someone clear this up for me?  Has he experienced more than "what if"?

Can't stop picking at it, can you?  BTW, his name is Nick PURPURA, not Peruta.

 

My mistake Peruta was the one in California that had standing but was denied Cert due to Kennedy not retiring.  

 

 

Yes that forum was left wing, but they have a very detailed history of his history with SCOTUS. Have you read through any of it?

 

 

 

If there wasn’t something there, even if small, then why would they grant permission to re-hear arguments for cert? They already denied it, so why would they agree to relook?

 

It's just part of the process. They aren't hearing any new arguments.

any update on this,  Jan 5th to rehear the case for cert?
 
  Thanks
I didn't see it on the official .gov docket for today, but on the summary of the case it was listed for today. It was listed as being on the docket today on a third party site and not listed on another 3rd party site. Regardless nothing has changed with SCOTUS that makes me think the outcome will be any different.

they give a reason why not? i'm not surprised to be honest.
Because they denied it once already and nothing changed between the denials?

I assume this horse is officially dead? Maybe now we can expend funds on a lawsuit that actually has a shot at being heard by SCOTUS and being decided in our favor.

I will admit I found this suit interesting at first but it seems to me Mr Purpura is a serial frivolous litigant.

       HONEST GUN OWNERS TREATED
      THE SAME AS MURDERERS FOR
      INADVERTENT, TECHNICAL LAW VIOLATIONS   No Violent Crime Required Rot in Jail for Years While Awaiting “Trial”
      Tell Lawmakers to Fix or Oppose This Poorly-Crafted Bill
      On Monday, March 14 at 1:00 p.m., the New Jersey Assembly Law and Public Safety Committee is scheduled to consider A2426 – an apparently well-intentioned but badly botched piece of legislation whose intended purpose appears to be to throw the book at violent gun criminals – which law-abiding gun owners actually support.
        But as written, the bill does not distinguish between violent criminal behavior and innocent technical infractions for the draconian presumption against bail to apply.  Law-abiding gun owners who inadvertently violate NJ’s thicket of hyper-technical firearms possession laws would be treated exactly the same as murderers—thrown in jail to rot for years without bail while they await trial someday for their “crimes.”
      This is not an imagined concern, as the Garden State has a well-documented track record of throwing the book at honest gun owners for innocent technical infractions.  As written, this bill adds insult to injury and would throw honest gun owners in the gulag for years while they await trial for “infractions” like:
      -Stopping for food, fuel, going to the bathroom, or medical treatment on the way to or from the target range.
      -Transporting firearms to or from one’s place of business, a gun store, hunting, fishing, target shooting competitions, target ranges, re-enactments, gun buyback events, vacation homes or other destinations.
      -Widows or widowers turning in firearms of their deceased spouses.
      -Possession of antique and black powder firearms (even these firearms could trigger the draconian penalties under this bill).
      PLEASE IMMEDIATELY CLICK HERE TO EMAIL EVERY ASSEMBLY MEMBER AND TELL THEM TO EITHER FIX OR OPPOSE A2426.  The law should distinguish between MERE POSSESSION of firearms by honest gun owners, vs. MISUSE of firearms by violent gun criminals, and draconian penalties like presumptive denial of bail should only apply to violent criminals who misuse firearms, and not to innocent mistakes of honest gun owners like technical possessory infractions where no violent misconduct is present.  Honest gun owners should not be treated the same as murderers!  Throw the book at the bad guys but take extreme care not to lump the good guys in with the bad.  The bill can easily be amended to make it clear that its penalties apply only to persons accused of violent criminal behavior.

      Judge Kavanaugh and the Second Amendment
      http://www.scotusblog.com/2018/07/judge-kavanaugh-and-the-second-amendment/
      "....Kennedy sided with his more conservative colleagues in finding a Second Amendment right to have a handgun in the home, and there is no reason to believe that Judge Brett Kavanaugh, if confirmed, is likely to disagree"
      "....We know from his recorded dissents from the denial of review that Thomas would vote to review and overturn some existing gun laws, and we know that Gorsuch – at least to some extent – agrees with him. But it takes four votes to grant review in a case, and we do not know whether Roberts and Alito also agree with Thomas but have opted not to say so publicly, or whether they instead are content to leave the court’s gun-rights jurisprudence as it is."
      ".... just this week, the 9th Circuit struck down Hawaii’s ban on carrying weapons openly outside of the home; even if the case goes to the full 9th Circuit, the losing party is almost certain to ask the Supreme Court to weigh in."

      Second Amendment challenge to New York state stun gun ban
      https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2016/12/07/second-amendment-challenge-to-new-york-state-stun-gun-ban/?utm_term=.8affecbeea72&wpisrc=nl_volokh&wpmm=1
       
      A law suit was filed that challenges New York's stun gun ban based on second amendment issues.
       
      The filing is here:
      http://14544-presscdn-0-64.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/New-York-sued-in-federal-court-over-Taser-ban.pdf
       
      The suit cites Heller, McDonald, and the more recent Caetano v. Massachusetts decision.
       
      If NY falls then maybe NJ will be next.

      Gun confiscation is one step closer in Connecticut. The mainstream media spins it as “one more chance” for non-compliant gun owners who failed to register their scary guns before the January 1 deadline.
       
      In reality, these letters - 106 to rifle owners, and 108 more to residents with standard capacity magazines – are the first step in the Connecticut State Police beginning to round up guns arbitrarily made illegal last year in that state. These guns include America’s favorite rifle, the AR-15 and magazines over 10 rounds, which include the standard capacity magazines made for that America’s favorite rifle.
       
      Failure to register is now a felony now in Connecticut.
       
      How long will it be before there is bloodshed over this law? We’re not sure, but we’re confident it is coming unless the law is rescinded or struck down by the courts.
       
      Mike Vanderboegh of the edgy Sipsey Street Irregulars released an open letter a couple of weeks ago, warning of what’s coming to Connecticut. The Connecticut State Police aren’t listening. Yet.
       
      We suspect attitudes may change after the first few rounds of bloodshed.
       
      As it stands right now, the best estimates are that 4% of newly-regulated guns and magazines in The Nutmeg State have been registered, leaving a hundred thousand or more newly classified potential felons looking over their shoulder.
       
      Editor’s note: We’re not going to link to the article because they are hiding most of the content behind a paywall and we won’t drive thousands of readers to their website.
       
      One more chance for gun owners
       
      Posted: Monday, February 24, 2014 3:35 pm | Updated: 3:36 pm, Mon Feb 24, 2014.
       
      Manchester, CT (Journal Inquirer) – When state officials decided to accept some gun registrations and magazine declarations that arrived after a Jan. 4 deadline, they also had to deal with those applications that didn’t make the cut.
       
      The state now holds signed and notarized letters saying those late applicants own rifles and magazines illegally.
       
      But rather than turn that information over to prosecutors, state officials are giving the gun owners a chance to get rid of the weapons and magazines.

      -------------------------------
      100 letters don't seem like much, but it might be their strategy to tackle a little at a time when it comes to the overall 100k non-compliant gun owners. I'm giving strong consideration to the idea of making future purchases outside state lines.
