| I haven't had a chance to follow the NJ and MA stun gun cases...but are you then folding the win into a case against banning pistols like they do in NY, NJ etc? Simply owning a handgun should not require a permit. |

I certainly would. If you like northern style barbecue, I suggest Warehouse Grill on Wolf Road. If you have another preferred cuisine, let me know. I've lived in the Albany area since the 80s and I'm pretty familiar with the restaurants. David |

| Best bet would be the Hilton. Don't go southwest of Rt. 20. Downtown is pretty much just college aged kids or capital workers. Personally never had a problem there, but I'm not there as often as I had been in the past. This place is right around the corner -> http://www.evansale.com/ |

The Albany Hilton is right up State Street from the courthouse. Not a bad area, just not much going on there after hours.

| So here's the latest. The march 6 conf got cancelled. We are having 3 hearings on march 24 in Utica. We will leave Utica march 24 afternoon to head back to Albany and then head out march 25. So if y'all are up for dinner on the 24 night in Albany, Alan and I will be there. Or dinner on 23 night in Utica (if people are there) we are down for that too! |

| Not to disparage your work at all Nolo - we greatly appreciate making any strides in striking down any dumbass NY laws...But we need the unSAFE act to get tossed, then we need the arbitrary and capricious pistol laws to get thrown out. |

This won't happen with the 2nd circuit as currently constituted. We will need the Supreme Court to weigh in and then the 2nd to get additional trump appointments that are 2A friendly. At that point, we will fix your laws. |

Not sure how banning pistols and semi auto rifles in common use is not in violation of the 2nd amendment too...but I guess I am not as in touch with my feelings as that asshat hack Skretny and the 2nd circus. How would this undermine UNSAFE which is already settled case law? |

The Kolbe ruling has zero grounding in reality but odds are SCOTUS will punt on that too despite the fact it makes an absolute mockery of Heller. |

| Holy shit. New York is crazy. Stun guns are dangerous and unusual they say. No 2A right to have one. Even in your home. Because you can have a gun. In your home. Everytown for gun violence (or whatever they are called) filed an amicus in the case today. These people are crazy. Oh, and they pretty much tell the Court they don't care about Heller. I'll post it up tomorrow. |

You know you are going to lose this case right?
It will have to go back up to SCOTUS...where they would almost surely agree with you. But there is ZERO chance of winning any pro-2nd amendment case in NY. This is NY. They don't give a fuck. Just wait for the NY judge's mental gymnastics to disregard your Caetano case. So thank you for your work!!! But it's going to be a long road for this case until SCOTUS gets it. |
