I hear William Barr is due to be confirmed next week & he is notoriously anti-gun, including bumpstocks.
If this happens, what effect if any, will it have on these proceedings? |

Does the government get to go through a Discovery process on the Plaintiffs and vice versa? How much information does the government need to produce?

I wonder why when any leftist person/group files a lawsuit about any Trump signed executive order it gets an injunction almost immediately, yet when our side does the same thing there is continual court dates into the future.

Has anyone checked out the list of "bumpstocks" and how to destroy them on the BATFE's website? Two of the items are not even stocks they are just grips.

Everyone needs to hang on tight, the ride is in motion.
Look for many twists and turns ahead, and always keeps your hands inside the ride at all times! Please remember on your way out to stop in our lobby for some of our fine pitchfork and torch merchandise on sale.....(who would have guessed the modern day equivalent would end up being a dillo?) |

Quoted: Unfortunately, they are always sold out. I don't want the item, but would like to donate.....maybe Mark should set up a separate donation page as well. View Quote Quoted:
Be great fine and dandy if they were for sale ... View Quote There have been 4 rounds so far. They sell out within an hour. |

Will Kisor v. Wilkie (about deferring to agency interpretations of their own regulations), going in front of the USSC next month, affect your case at all? https://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/kisor-v-wilkie/ View Quote |

Will Kisor v. Wilkie (about deferring to agency interpretations of their own regulations), going in front of the USSC next month, affect your case at all? https://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/kisor-v-wilkie/ https://www.scotusblog.com/2019/01/symposium-government-agencies-shouldnt-get-to-put-a-thumb-on-the-scales/ In reviewing Kisor’s case, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit concluded that the term “relevant” as used in the applicable regulations is ambiguous because its scope is vague. Due to this ambiguity, the court felt compelled to accept the VA’s interpretation under Auer v. Robbins, which provides that a federal agency’s interpretation of its own ambiguous regulation is “controlling” unless it is “plainly erroneous or inconsistent with the regulation.” Auer built upon, and arguably expanded, the Supreme Court’s long-standing practice of deferring to agency interpretations of their own regulations born in 1945’s Bowles v. Seminole Rock. Although initially uncontroversial, the doctrine has come under fire from legal commentators and prominent jurists – and for good reason. Several justices, including Auer’s author, the late Justice Antonin Scalia, have recognized that Auer unduly aggrandizes agency authority without legislative warrant. Among other things, Auer deference enables agencies to evade a wide range of legal constraints that are otherwise imposed upon agency behavior, particularly on the ability of agencies to take action with the force of law. |

I sent the atf another foia this morning for the reasoning (PowerPoint presentation and briefs) banning the Akins accelerator. Apparently the director of the agency did that on his own despite his entire tech branch saying it wasn’t a machine gun. Come on atf, this isn’t the way to win hearts and minds. And no, I don’t want any pancakes.

Quoted: "Those are the documents Savage and Stamboulieh are determined to obtain and make public. They should have a significant bearing on another action Stamboulieh is currently arguing, the case over the Trump “bump stock ban” involving, among other complaints, my re-engineered-to-be-compliant Akins Accelerator."

LOTS of stuff going on behind the scenes.... View Quote One of the things I believe you will find encouragement in is this: Proverbs 22:29 - Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before obscure men. I am sure many of us agree you are stepping up to the plate every chance you get and I am certain your work will be blessed. |
