Trooper Jones,
I am writing to inquire as to the status of my handgun permit application. It has been over 90 business days since the date of the application. I am aware of the stay that is currently in place by Judge Benson Legg. My application was received after the March decision, but before the stay was granted. COMAR says that there should be a decision made on permit applications in 90 business days. 90 business days have passed and no decision has been made.
It is my belief that the department is waiting for Judge Legg to continue, or lift the stay instead of outright denying those like me who fall under the March decision. Is this the reason for the delay in my decision, or can I expect my handgun CCW permit in the mail.
Please update me on my status.

They are sitting on those. It has been acknowledged, and by doing it they are actually helping you out. The alternative is you will be denied under existing law. That means you would need to re-apply and then start all over, including paying your fees. It's your call on what to do, but were I you I would sit for a few days and see where this goes. If you want to push, demand a review board hearing. That should set your process back about 120 days. Or you could wait 5.
The 4th Circuit is the thing to watch. Everyone is waiting on them (including MSP). Until then, we are all on hold.
