You're thinking of the NYRPA case, this thread is the Rogers NJ carry permit thread.
Sorry. All the excitement over cert for the NY case left me confused.

NJ has waived their right to respond in this case. Something tells me it will be short lived as all any Justice has to do is give a "Response Requested"...
Here is a reach... Maybe they are afraid if they delay with Justice RBG in poor health they risk losing her vote to judge Amy Coney Barrett . Does this put Rogers into confrence rotation?
Not sure what you mean by putting Rogers into conference rotation. All cases go to conference.
They should be afraid. RBG getting replaced by someone like Thomas Hardiman pretty much guarantees "justifiable need" is dead.
That being the case, Mark, why might NJ have done it? Perhaps a delaying tactic, but to what end?
There's a lot to this legal stuff that leaves me at loose ends.
Mostly because NJ AG is an idiot. The petition presents a square split in the circuits. That, by any measure, is NOT the kind of case that you waive a response as anyone who ever litigates in the SCT would have told them. They just sacrificed their credibility. A good thing.
For those who do not remember, Drake v Filko (Drake v Jerejian) (3rd circuit, NJ) was the one carry case that got relisted when Kennedy was on the court. Drake was an an obscenely bad opinion, pretty far out there. I always suspected that the court wanted to take it, but there were procedural or other issues with the case that prevented the court from taking it. It got relisted 3 times.

This was NJ response at the time: http://sblog.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/NJ_AG_Brief_Opposing_Sup_Ct_.pdf
To be fair to NJ, I think that if they responded, much of their earlier response would be cut and paste. In their response they spent a lot of time arguing that the NJ law was "longstanding" so they probably will simply argue that bans on public carry are part of the history and tradition of the 2nd amendment.
Tell us what you REALLY think, Esq....
Sometimes, it's so obvious that only plain language will do.....
I can't agree more Esq. that's why I referred to the NJAG as a "sneaky underhanded bastards" ....wouldn't it be poetic justice after all the underhanded shit the New Jersey attorney general has done that it would be New Jersey torpedoes justifiable need / good cause
men buggering other men in the arse.
What was it Shakespeare said about methinking thou dost protest too much? This topic seems to be REALLY on your mind. Like, all the time. We get it. You're scared of it or something. Maybe you can let it go for your next dozen posts or so?
My apologies, mods, if this is too personal a reference to another member's style. But it has to be said (again).
I'm okay with justifiable need for guns as long as we get to impose the same thing on women killing their babies and men buggering other men in the arse.
