Default Jackson v. San Francisco

Quote:
...defendants shall respond to the amended complaint within 20 days of the date of this order.
Dated: 09/13/2010
So, what's SF's upcoming move going to be in an effort to prolong all their unconstitutional nonsense?

Are McDonald and Heller enough to get this done?

We can soon order ammo? Keep weapons ready? Discharge firearms in self-defense?

Thanks to the NRA and CRPAF for the diligence on this one. Nice not to be considered a lost cause...

Why doesn't this sort of nonsense coming from San Francisco surprise me?

Gavin Newsom, the current SF Mayor is running for Lt. Governor yet no one talks about his presiding over this 2a debacle. Yes, Lt. Gov is important.

First of all, thank you. We have never forgotten about you in San Francisco. See Fiscal v. City and County of San Francicso (successfully challenging the Prop H handgun ban on preemption grounds pre-Heller; and recovering $380,000 in attorneys fees from the City) and Guy Montag Doe v. City and County of San Francisco (successfully challenging the San Francisco Housing Authority's ban of firearms possession by public housing residents; Defendants settled in that case, voluntarily repealing the ban).

With respect to Jackson, Plaintiffs granted the City's request for an extension to file a responsive pleading pending Defendants' Motion to Consolidate this case with Pizzo. Plaintiffs are opposing the motion to consolidate, however, as the court has already declined to "relate" the two cases based on their differences, because Pizzo is stayed while the stay has been lifted in Jackson, and because Plaintiffs are dropping their state law claims, while Pizzo still includes state law challenges. Our office will be announcing more on this issue soon.

In light of the City's insistence on proceeding with preliminary motions rather than address Plaintiffs' claims on the merits, Plaintiffs will file a Motion for Preliminary Injunction to stop the ordinances from being enforced so as to prevent further deprivation of Plaintiffs' civil rights while Plaintiffs respond to unecessary preliminary motions. Plaintiffs will seek recovery of all additional attorneys fees incurred in responding to these motions. The Motion for Preliminary Injunction will be filed very soon and will be released on Calguns and Calgunlaws.com as soon as it is filed.

With respect to the discharge ban, the parties are currently engaged in settlement negotiations - we will announce more details on this at the proper time.

With regard to the ammunition and storage ordinances, please sit tight until the injunction hearing which we will announce soon.

I look forward to hearing an update on Jackson v. San Francisco. The motion to consolidate with Pizzo v Newsom will be heard today at 1:30pm.

For those of you that need a refresher Pizzo is a Gorski case. Here is what Gene said on 10-14-2009, about Pizzo

He's basically lifted strategy and argument from Mr. Gura in Sykes. However, this absolutely a bad venue strategically. Further, Gorski named the State of California via Mr. Brown to attempt to invalidate PC 12050. That's a bad idea strategically as we don't really want a re-write of that law (by De Leon for example?)

Mr. Gorski also is challenging the same safe storage requirements in SF that Chuck Michel/NRA are challenging. As such, I expect those cases to get consolidated and stayed. The risk is that an unfriendly court could attempt to move the case forward to a loss by ignoring the pendency of Nordyke and McDonald.

As expected, the Judge denied the City's Motion to Consolidate our case with Pizzo. With the stay lifted and consolidation successfully avoided, Plaintiffs will now move forward with a Motion for Preliminary Injunction.

Well, Clint did emphasis "successfully avoided," from which I assume they are happy about not having to work with that other lawyer.

From my limited understanding, its less important to not work with another lawyer, and more important to just not work with Gorski

A quick summary as to why this is good: Jackson is not stayed pending Nordyke, while Pizzo is. So not only are we not tied to another case, but more importantly we are not tied to another case that is stayed. That means we can file our motion for an injunciton as soon as possible to relieve our clients of harm under these ordinances, and not have to wait for a ruling in Nordyke.

It is excellent news. Having Jackson move while Gorski is stuck is very, very good.

You know,

1) reading about the various awards given to lawyers for their work, and

2) looking at all the die-hard banners in this country,

I'm thinking gun-rights law is a growth industry and maybe I should attend law school.

I did put "that other lawyer", not just "another lawyer". Maybe I should have emphasised the "that" but I thought it was self-evident.

Subtlety is lost on some people.

We have no shortage of inane ordnance ordinances to overturn...

I hear our air-gun ban goes back to turn of the century kids shooting milk-cart horses in the arse as they climbed the steep hills of SF.

Heh. Kids those days v. these days...

So does the recent decision on AB962 bode well for mail-order ammo sales to SF and the other ostracized counties?

I don't think so. AB962 was found to be "unconstitutionally vague" because it only applied to "handgun ammo" but didn't define what "handgun ammo" was. The San Francisco law that many vendors interpret to mean no mail order ammo sales applies to all types of ammo. There is no vagueness in the law about what type of ammo it applies to.

Where can I even buy ammo in SF? I thought all ammo was banned and that is why Big 5 stopped selling ammo in SF.

"Further the suit challenges the ban on the sale of hollow point ammunition or any ammunition that is not suitable for "sporting purposes" in San Francisco."

Ever since High Bridge Arms left Mission St. I don't think you CAN buy ammo in SF.

Ridiculous.

There still is a webpage for High Bridge nostalgics:

High Bridge had re-opened in their original location. That website is current.

Word.

Just found this as you were posting that...

http://articles.sfgate.com/2010-09-0...n-shops-coggan

Quote:
Coggan said he had received hundreds of e-mails and phone calls in the days leading to the hearing. The overwhelming majority opposed the gun store, he said.

Yet at the hearing, only four people spoke against High Bridge Arms, while 10 spoke in support.

Heh. Funny. Would make a good cartoon.

Where should we start the thread to chant "High Bridge: Open, open, open..."?

"I keep hopin', hopin' hopin' that they'll open, open, open at the High Bridge Firearms store!"

(Apologies to Mervyns™.)

I see there is a hearing today on San Francisco's motion to dismiss:

Renotice motion hearing re 61 MOTION to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction ; Memorandum of Points and Authorities filed byCity and County of San Francisco.

Judge Richard Seeborg was nominated by Pres. Obama, and approved by the full Senate in December, 2009...

So does that mean he is a staunch defender of the right to keep and bear arms?

The MTD hearing was post-poned so that Plaintiffs' could file a supplemental brief addressing the City's amendments to its discharge prohibitions. That brief will be filed tomorrow. The hearing is now scheduled for April 28th.

So far so good on the Judicial front. The Court granted Plaintiffs' Motion for Relief from Stay, Denied City's Motion to Consolidate the Case with Pizzo (Gorski's case), and on its own accord granted Plaintiffs the opportunity to file a supplemental brief when the City amended its discharge ordinance and didn't mention it until their Reply. We shall see.

Because the City has now tried to push Gorski's case ahead of ours, NRA has moved for Amicus status in Pizzo. That hearing is scheduled for May 5th. The Pizzo parties' Opposition briefs are due today.

Ah, thank you San Francisco for spending my tax dollars so wisely.

I keep sending letters to the Mayors office, City Attorney, the Board of Supervisors, etc. asking them to stop wasting the city's limited financial resources litigating nonsense laws but they don't listen!

Of course not. The job of government is to burn through as much taxpayers' money as fast and as maliciously as possible! If anything, your letters are reminding them that they need to buy new paper shredders to file all the law-abiders' letters in.
