Update by Charles Nichols, President of California Right To Carry – November 9, 2016 at 4:35 PM – I think the 9th Circuit Clerk set a new record in accepting documents as filed and issuing the order to file the printed documents within seven days. It took them an hour and a half to review my documents and issue the order. I likewise rushed in appending the proofs of service and certification of paper copies to the pdfs, getting them to the printer and confirming that the files were received and that they were able to open and view the files. They tell me the printed copies should be ready tomorrow, noon on Friday at the latest. This means I will be able to box them up and ship them from the post office on Friday afternoon via USPS Priority 2 day mail which is cheaper (but not cheap) than the Priority Express postage I had to pay for my preliminary injunction appeal (my preliminary injunction appeal is now moot because I am now on an appeal of final judgment).
