I'm just hoping they're being extremely thorough, with this potentially a landmark case.
As for denials? My nickel in the wishing well is for MSP to just hold as-is...

we were so close to being citizens, too
You're correct. But they will have to do at least 365 hearings. The licensing division will come to a screeching halt.
I think we need some opinions from MSI here as well.
As others have mentioned in other threads, seeking an appeal from the board keeps the application administratively alive. I would assume that one has to exhaust the administrative remedy path before going forward with litigation. I agree that the HPRB will side with MSP and refuse to overturn based on G&S still being permissible under the CA4 Stay.
I think I will wait and see what MSI has to say and, if denied, will write SAF and ask for guidance since I was a SAF member at the time of application.
It's written right in the order
"Upon consideration of the filings relative to the motion to stay pending appeal, the court grants the motion. The court further directs that this case be expedited and tentatively calendared for oral argument during the October, 2012 session of court, October 23-26, 2012"
Thats about 90 days.

An expedited appeal is a big deal. It means you get to jump in front of the line for oral argument and for resolution. Highly unusual to get an oral argument date before all the briefs are filed. And yes, they can issue a one-line order like this. Not uncommon. By expediting it, they recognize the importance of the case and seek to minimize the length of time the stay pending appeal is in place.
i'd like to say that i'm surprised, but i'm not. Hense why I was holding off till the 8th to bother with livescan.

Back to waiting for people in black robes to tell us whether or not we have rights that we already know we have.

Getting something in the books is much easier than getting it out.
I kinda expected this, though I'd hoped that it wouldn't happen.
If there's a bright side to it, it's that every other state in the 4th Circut (WV, VA, NC, SC) is Shall Issue. MD is the only standout.

You know, I think it likely that the MSP will just continue to hold the pre-stay apps that they were just holding before. That's a guess. The will simply deny the new appls filed now, rather than returning them as before.

Not suprised but disappointed
Based on the short time frame involved, yesterday I wouldn't have been that surprised that they opted to keep the status quo. However, after reading the spanking that Gura dished out, I had myself a big gulp full of the Kool-Aid and I'm really bummed....
