Won't know 100% until we have the transcript, but it's being reported as from today's hearing.

Totally makes sense to me. (non-political take) Punt to the judge who has already done the work and issued an opinion on the majority of the issues. (political take) Punt to the judge who is apparently willing to stick their neck out on an unpopular issue, and get it off your future resume.

Tick Tock Tick Tock:

Probably will have reports later this afternoon. Doesn't start until 1:30.

Murphy out on twitter touting the anti-carry bill this morning. Weird timing...

Gloucester County:

Now that I'm thinking about this - when I "ghost load" my semi-auto shotgun, it has 5 in the magazine, 1 in the chamber and 1 on the lifter.

Carrying 1 in chamber and 10 in magazine. There is nothing illegal about that.

SCOTUS did indeed put them “on notice” - if the 2nd cir doesn’t act in a “reasonable time”request intervention from us again:

What would be the charge for carrying a handgun that was not on the list ordered by a NJ superior court - contempt of court?

2nd circuit is now “on notice” from SCOTUS that SCOTUS is watching, so 2nd circuit better start moving quickly on adjudicating the appeal instead of just sitting on it. NJ’s cases are in the 3rd circuit, different set for judges, no guarantee that an appeal by NJ would result in a stay for the current TRO, but it’s possible.

As soon as we see the order it should mean that the following are no longer illegal: Carry on body in car Carry on private property WITHOUT prior consent Carry in Bars/Restaurants where alcohol is served Carry in Entertainment Facilities Carry in Public libraries/museums.

TRO GRANTED! https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.njd.506033/gov.uscourts.njd.506033.34.0.pdf

Adios Bump Stock Ban!: BREAKING: Cargill v. Garland (5th Circuit): En banc Fifth Circuit strikes down the federal bump stock ban, saying it violates the Administrative Procedure Act. "The definition of 'machinegun' as set forth in the National Firearms Act and Gun Control Act does not apply to bump stocks. And if there were any doubt as to this conclusion, we conclude that the statutory definition is ambiguous, at the very least." https://assets.nationbuilder.com/firearmspolicyfoundation/pages/3970/attachments/original/1673045236/Cargill_v_Garland_En_Banc_Opinion.pdf

No idea what the author was trying to convey with that.
