Anyone going to hear the Nordyke verdict?

[eflatminor]

I read this it's coming down this week. Anyone know what day? I'm thinking about going, showing up in a suit and tie looking respectable, just to show support.

You gotta be kidding me-- next week? That would be unheard of.

Do they even read out loud their judgment?

[JDay]

Can anyone confirm this?

[hoffmang]

That would be highly unlikely. I would expect that 2/15 would be the very earliest you could see this.

Where did your information come from?

Obviously since oral arguments were made 1/15, if the judgment was released next week, that'd be 2 weeks!

;) Sorry, couldn't resist.

The oral hearing was last week. No one knows when the decision will handed down.

Welcome to the forums! I am excited about Nordyke v. King as well, but a decision this week would not be likely at all. These cases take at least 2-3 months to decide. DV v Heller took 3 months (cmifw).

Setting aside the timing question, do appeals courts read opinions from the bench?

Nope. They just show up on the website and the attorneys get emails (in the 9th.)

Gene,

Based on the judge's comments during the first trial based on their incorrect assumption of a collective right, can they wiggle out of giving incorporation post Heller without appearing morally and ethically bankrupt?

[eflatminor]

I must have misread something. Sorry about that. Good to see lots of us watching this one. It could mean a lot more than just gun shows in Oakland, yes?

If only it was going to be read out... but hey someone could print it out and have an impromptu public reading over a portable PA at a park near the courthouse.

I have corrected a couple people who thought it would be two weeks

It is possible, but not very likely that they would pass over Incorporating the 2nd.

I am not a praying man, but I was hoping that something comes sooner.

Can I assume that whenever the court does decide the case that there will be a large post here regardless of which direction the decision goes, correct?

I would expect a link to the full decision on this forum minutes after it is released.

I expect there will be multiple threads made about it.

8. Q. Approximately how long does it take from the time of argument to the time
of decision?
A. The Court has no time limit, but most cases are decided within 3 months to a
year.
