So when do they do like they did in Texas with school finance reform? Where the judge basically says this is how it will be until you come back here with a reasonable plan that I approve?

I realize it's probably not within the court's purview, but they should be fined into oblivion.

Currently, I don't believe there is ANY way for a VA resident to even apply for a D.C. permit. Even if/when D.C. is finally forced (kicking and screaming) into something approaching "shall issue" they will without doubt create all kinds of ridiculous training requirements and fees and bullshit and renewals and all kinds of stuff. Probably toeprints and stool samples too. |

I hope that some of this judicial common sense bleeds over into The Communist Republic of MD. As it stands now, normal, law abiding and tax paying citizens have close to zero chance of getting a CCW permit.
It pisses me off every day. |

It's possible Emily Miller applied - but she's a DC resident. IIRC, the class is something like 8 hours. And it has a practical/shooting range test. Only there is NO shooting range open in DC for testing purposes. So you have to go to MD to do that part of the test. Not even sure if there is ANY non-resident permit. Too bad they could not have forced DC and MD to accept VA permits as part of the reciprocity deal with McAwful last year. |

Is this an immediate hold on the current rules? Does that mean that - like last time - until they quickly pass some new rules, open and concealed carry is temporarily legal in D.C.?

The case is still pending. The Plaintiff asked for - and got - a preliminary injunction.

A bit of good news.
Though what are the chances that in 24-48 hours, DC establishes another bureaucratic obstacle which will eventually face yet another legal challenge? |

They have to have a pile of contingency plans in the rafters.

There should be a law or possibly a Constitutional Amendment that all new laws have to pass a Constitutional Review
before they become law. That should tie the system up for long enough that no new laws get passed for a while. |

Rulings such as this explains the sudden moonbat push by the Left against the 2nd amendment. They can see that the courts are reading the 2nd, and they do not like it one bit.

If they were jacking up voting rights like this, injunctions would be flying AND the President and his DOJ MINIONS would be in the middle of it.

Is this an immediate hold on the current rules? Does that mean that - like last time - until they quickly pass some new rules, open and concealed carry is temporarily legal in D.C.? This was my first thought. That's the kind of law enacted in Florida wherein the creation of any local, county, or municipal gun laws, which are prohibited by state pre-emption, brings stiff personal financial penalties against the individuals who pass those local laws and even includes removing them from office by the governor. Until the new pre-emption law was passed; there were no penalties for local politicians and/or the localities that passed illegal gun laws so they ignored the state pre-emption, in some cases, their municipal attorneys even claiming that they were unaware of it. There needs to be penalties assigned against individual elected officials who continuously flaunt the law and court rulings in favor of gun rights. |
