THE STAY IS LIFTED! effective in 14 days

Sev89 · Jul 24, 2012

Finally, some good news in what has to be the worst "doom n' gloom" period I've witnessed during the short time I've been here. Big thanks to MSI and everyone else who made this possible!

Tooooo Soon for that.

You might want to review the thread on that subject, it seems the guy had body armor.

I seriously doubt Holmes has been shot enough times while wearing body armor that a movie patron shooting him wouldn't stop or slow down his attack enough that he could be subdued. I, and many in that theater would have like the chance to shoot back and find out I bet.

+2, too soon for the movie comment.

My question is what about people like my Brother?? Sent the app, had back round check done, went to the interview and 97 days later, he still hasn't heard a word. At least last time we spoke 2 days ago. So, what's the public opinion on guys who are in this position?

He is in the same position I am in. I am sitting tight.

I'm waiting as well. No reason to torture myself.

So for those like me who were waiting for this decision before applying, should we:

1) Apply imediately?

2) Apply on Aug 7th

or

3) Don't apply until we get a decision from the Court of Appeals?

Thanks :thumbsup:

If you can afford the money, apply on 8/7.

It is a personal decision. If there is no stay, I personally would have no problem applying on August 7. Indeed, given the order, I may even be tempted to get a jump on the process and apply now, before the 7th, in the belief that the MSP will not be arbitrary. The most you will lose is the cost of the livescan if they continue their existing practice and return the application and your check.

OK, thanks

I'm off work on Aug 6th. Leaning towards getting the prints and photos all done that day and mailing it in on the 7th!

Great news, even if I need to wait a couple more weeks.

I just may go buy a lottery ticket. . . .

The order was dated the 23rd. So wouldn't today, the 24th, count?

(Broadside is doing the happy dance.)

Count full days after the 23rd. After 14 of those, i.e. the beginning of August 7, then the stay is lifted.

For an out of state resident to apply (PA) what part of the form do you fill out ? Thanks

No, but you can OC it.

Actually, the stay is in effect for the full 14 days through the end of the day on August 7. The order is in effect as of the date the order was docketed (not dated) and don't count that day. Starting count 14 as of 7/25. So it is lifted as of 12:01 am August 8. See Rule 6, FRCP.

Edit: My error. I looked back and saw that the order lifting the stay was actually filed 7/23. So the stay is over as of 12:01am August 7.

Shouldn't we expect a revised application form within 14 days?

esqappellate · Jul 24, 2012

No way. Not until and unless they lose on appeal and all appellate proceedings have been exhausted.

EDIT: See Patrick's separate post/thread. We shall see.

First, congrats to everyone!

Second, I have a question...not sure if it's been answered already so i'll apologize in advance.

If the State does in fact ask for an Emergency Stay, will the court require briefing and a schedule or...how does that work exactly?

Thanks!

Very good news indeed. I applied before the stay so hopefully I see one soon. I actually had a G&S so who knows.
