I also keep tabs on other types of RKBA cases there, but the focus is Carry.

Currently, in brief, in the 9th Circuit, we're awaiting their decision re. allowing CA AG Harris to intervene in Peruta and, if so, whether they'll grant either a rehearing by the original 3-judge panel, or allow a rehearing en banc.

We expect Evan Nappen to ask SCOTUS for cert. by Aug. 28th in the NJ carry case Pantano.

Thanks for your input here

In that this case had been hanging out there for 5 years, I don't think it is an accident that it came out just as congress may be finally doing something about the DC gun laws

I hope that pressure can be placed on DC to accept this and finally get on the right side of history.

If they choose to fight, I see congress stepping in.

They will go down kicking and screaming but in the end the case of the DC government for No Carry is looking shakier and shakier

That said I would imagine they would try for the most restrictive carry laws that they can get away with. Probably a pseudo "shall issue" like Illinois now has. IMHO
