    Bevis is in the Northern District it is not done at the District Court yet as they are still in the motions/discovery phase.

     

    Viramontes v. Cook County is also from the Northern District and had oral arguments heard by a 7th Circuit panel Nov 12, 2024.  I'm not holding my breath waiting for the opinion to come anytime soon, but it is further along than the Barnett case. which has not yet had oral arguments heard.

     

    Thanks. If SCOTUS is waiting for the 7th Circuit to give them something to work with, it might be a long wait.

    Barnett is a completed case at the district level.  That happened last fall.

     

    I set the over/under on 7th sitting on it at 2 years (with the clock starting when they stayed the decision out of the Southern District of Illinois last fall).

     

    Who wants the under?

     

    Isn't there another case, perhaps in the Northern District of IL? With a less than 2A friendly judge?

    Denied.

     

     

     

    "Opinions from other Courts of Appeals should assist this Court’s ultimate decisionmaking on the AR–15 issue. Additional petitions for certiorari will likely be before this Court shortly and, in my view, this Court should and presumably will address the AR–15 issue soon, in the next Term or two."

     

    It sounds like Kavanaugh wants to rule for us (or why comment?), but can't quite do it yet. Haven't the 1st and 4th Circuits already refused to rule according to SCOTUS precedent? It would seem that would "assist" the Court sufficiently. 

     

    Here's the the SCOTUS site's link to the order. Scroll down to page 18 to start reading. Not surprisingly, Justice Thomas had something to say as well.

    Rep. DeLuca asks the sponsor for clarity on what changes for concealed carry licensees in a car.  This is interesting, coming from a fellow Democrat.

     

    He continues with questions about a carry gun in the owners house, pointing out that you "can go to sleep with a firearm in your pocket", and that is sufficient under this bill.

     

    She will get back to him on that.

     

     

     

     

     

    She has to "get back to him"? It's her bill, right?

    Rep. Fritts asks when the 48 hour lost or stolen reporting requirement starts.  The answer is when the owner becomes aware that the forearm is lost or stolen.  Mr. Fritts wonders if, while he is in Springfield, a neighbor advises him that his house has been broken in to.  The tier starts then, she says, to which he asks how he an make such report when he doesn't have serial numbers memorized.  Ms. Hirschauer said previously that serial numbers are required in the report.  He also points out that many people winter in Floriida.

     

     

     

    Starts then? How can a person report something "lost or stolen" until they can verify that it has been "lost or stolen"?

    I am a NRA Life Member.  My magazine subscriptions are “electronic” so I have received my ballots separately via US Mail.

     

    Has anyone received their ballot yet?  Again, a separate ballot, not with the magazine.

     

    Also, what are the ballot deadline dates?

     

    No ballot yet here. But it recently took something a doc's office mailed my wife about twelve days to go less than fifty miles.
