[River02]

Every time I open this thread, I feel like Charlie Brown hoping to kick the football.

X-Actly!

I think it’s time to realize the NRA is more of a political lobbying machine ...

Incorrect.

The NRA IS FOCUSED ON EDUCATION AND SAFETY.

From beginner to developing competitor, the NRA Training Department develops safe, ethical, responsible shooters through a network of more than 125,000 instructors and range safety officers and coaches. NRA Training Counselors recruit and train instructors to teach NRA's basic firearm courses.
What is the main objective of NRA?


To promote hunter safety, and to promote and defend hunting as a shooting sport and as a viable and necessary method of fostering the propagation, growth and conservation, and wise use of our renewable wildlife resources.

What are the priorities of the NRA?


Activities supported by The NRA Foundation are designed to promote firearms and hunting safety, to enhance marksmanship skills of those participating in the shooting sports, and to educate the general public about firearms in their historic, technological and artistic context.

I hope Frosh is sweating bullets that they take the case and Bianchi v Frosh becomes the next Bruen to advance guns rights even further which will be quoted and cited for years to come.

Frosh is no longer the AG. Anthony Brown is the AG and the case is now known as Bianchi v Brown.

Yeah! But I like to always like to remember Frosh and think of him every day if I am regular. So I would like to see some of his "legacy" get flushed down the Frosh hole.

I wonder if someone from the AG office made a "phone call off the record" to someone at 4CA and said hey this office would not cry any tears at all if 4CA decided to ah "slow walk" this case and or delay it long as possible thus being in "cahoots" with 4CA about this ..... IMHO that does need to be looked at by DOJ or some other agency since DOJ and all their 17 different law enforcement agencies can not be trusted to begin with.

To the OP: Although there are over 1,400 responses already, would you please consider changing one word in the thread title from "remits," to "remands," to represent the courts' legal procedure used? I variously cringe and rejoice whenever this "remits" thread pops up:

SCOTUS "remands" cases, it doesn't "remit" them, afaik.

From the looks of it, we're going to have to become increasingly conversant in the legal system's lingo and should make every effort to comport with it.

OP said he couldn't edit the thread title to correct misnomer "remits" to "remands." I guess he didn't want to impose on mods to do it for him.

SCOTUS didn't "remit" this case.

Unless there is a time out, I have been able to edit title threads by editing the first post.

I expect the Supreme's will wait to monitor the enbanc rehearing before acting. I also expect they see the need to jump back in for guidance after recent rulings... Hawaii... cough, cough...

A response to a petition for cert is due 30 days after it is placed on the docket.
En banc arguments are on 3/20/24.

So per the rules, MD will need to respond on or about the week of 3/11/24, right in the middle of their argument prep for all three cases.

The state will submit a 30 day extension request around 2/26 and receive it as a matter of course as a government body, but could another cert petition arrive.

You might tell the OP that.

I suspect that they will waive the right to respond.

Imagine the memes and Downfall edits if someone could get enough votes to grant cert without a response in this extraordinary circumstance.

SCOTUS will not grant cert without a response. If someone waives a response, SCOTUS will request a response before granting cert.

 

[Inigoes]

SCOTUS will not grant cert without a response. If someone waives a response, SCOTUS will request a response before granting cert.

The question would be a response from who in this extraordinary circumstance?

The 4CA en banc court or the MD AG?
