Donald Kilmer (Nordyke) has been holding out on us. First saw this at Calguns, then went and RECAPped the whole thing. This is a challenge to the Federal interpretation of certain parts of the Lautenberg amendment, as it pertains to CA statutory law.
If this survives, while it won't do away with the MCDV penalties directly, it will provide a way for States to enact statutory means do nullify the lifetime ban on gun possession.
Enos, et al v. Holder, et al. Case 2:10-cv-02911 (PACER #215824). Filed on 10-29-2010 in the US District Court of the Eastern District of California, Sacramento. Donald Kilmer, attorney for the Plaintiffs. 9 Plaintiffs, all but one, convicted of MCDV (Lautenberg). Alleges the US Government has violated their 2A rights through an unlawful interpretation of 18 U.S.C. SS 921, 922, and 925. Alleges violations of 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 10th amendments. The Madison Society is funding this lawsuit.

These should show up on the "Docket" later tonight, but I thought someone might want to read them now.
