Judicial corruption in the 4th circuit.

Something's afoot. They are probably waiting till January to motivate the Maryland General Assembly.

MGA had last session to do something and didn't.

They did. They reacted to the Bruen Decision.

They will if we get a favorable decision

Well, the MGA convenes in Jan to take more taxes and rights, so with your theory, we won't have much longer to wait.

I’ve been checking the 4CA website for some time like most of us. I noticed a few days ago, the anti 2A judge on the Bianchi case authored a decision for a case that was argued in 2021. It could be she’s lazy as well.

I get that it takes time, but SCOTUS made this easy.

SCOTUS made it * simple * . In turn , that makes it hard and time consuming for lower courts that makes it hard and time consuming to craft rulings as anti gun as they can , while maintaining a minimal fig leaf of sort of not totally ignoring SCOTUS .

I can't disagree.

Waiting as long as they can in hopes that the balance of the court will swing in their direction. It's clear that SCOTUS believes it's unconstitutional.

Different jurisdiction. That has no bearing on the MD case.

While 4CA may not cite it, they are likely to borrow from whatever weak minded "logic" was used by MA court.

The National Association for Gun Rights (NAGR) requested a preliminary injunction against the law, which would have prevented its enforcement during the legal challenge.

This is actually a good data point. If the judge typically takes forever to issue opinions, this one certainly wouldn't be any different.

They are taking the case en banc

JHC... The HQL en banc was scheduled for March at least. When is the "next available argument session"?
