They know the Dems play dirty, plus, their state is in danger too if California keeps walking the same path.

If that was a risk for the red state legislators, the legislation would have already been passed. Somehow, I don't see your scenario playing out. Great idea though.

The case is completely briefed and ready for decision on the merits.

The Court continued today's hearing on the merits to May 25. The Court wanted to set it for May 11 but DOJ's counsel is unfortunately out of town for two weeks.

I informed the Court of the impending July 1 deadline and Judge Snauffer assured me that he would make a quick ruling. So we should know the outcome of this case prior to July 1.
^^^^^
Isn't there an action on this today? Is there a page we can find what happened once it makes its slow grind through the bureaucracy?

My post above. Argued and taken under advisement. They are hoping for a quick opinion before July 1st.

On page 2 of this thread, you can find the case # and link to the court website. This will give you all the dates and uploaded Docs.

Maybe one of the Attorneys will come by and give an update on how argument went.

Is there a link to a court hearing transcript or YouTube video?

I doubt at this level of court there is any video. If you go to the on-line case file, you can find who the court reporter is and probably order the transcript from her.

I think our Loss was just posted. I'm reading it now.

Quote:
In the Court’s opinion, Defendants’ interpretation of the authorizing statute is reasonable; Plaintiffs fail to show that
Defendants abused their discretion in the interpretation of the authorizing statute.
Quote:
Petitioners Have Not Shown that Defendants Exceeded the Scope of the APA Exemption Found in Penal Code Section 39900.
Quote:
This Court is to give “great weight” to DOJ’S interpretation of the authorizing statute. (See, e.g., Association of California
Insurance Companies, supra, 2 Ca1.5th at p. 390.) Defendant DOJ’s interpretation of the exemption from the APA requirement does not
appear to be contrary to law.
Quote:
The Court finds that the weight of the evidence supports Defendants’ position that the regulations as promulgated are
within the APA exemption provided by Penal Code section 30900, subdivision (b)(5).
Quote:
It appears that the Legislature’s intent was to cast a wider net so far as registering weapons fitted;with a
bullet button, and to permit Defendant DOJ to promulgate regulations that carry out this intent, without going through the
APA notice and comment procedures.
Didn't see anything addressing the removal of BB post registration. But from what I read, it does seem to imply BB equipped AW's are the same as any other AW. So why would we need to keep on the BB post registration? Especially since other 2001-2016 requirements can be altered ( ie: under 30" OAL, use of 10+ mags).

Didn't see anything addressing the removal of BB post registration. Just a blanket statement that DOJ has the right do what they want.

Yep, this was rough to read. Court gave DOJ way too much leeway to "fill in the blanks."

Which in my opinion, now opens-up "cans of worms" in other areas.

Basically the DOJ can now write there own law.

So much for checks and balances.

I had to quit reading just before the end. I am appalled.

This wording on page 4 also scares me a little:

Quote:
A firearm equipped with a bullet button will be considered an assault weapon, due to it not having a fixed magazine; a “fixed magazine” means that the magazine can only be removed by disassembling the entire firearm.

An administrative agency "is not limited to the exact provisions of a statute" in adopting regulations to enforce its mandate; an absence of specific statutory provisions regarding the regulation of an issue does not mean that such a regulation exceeds statutory authority
Can someone remind me what the definition of "underground regulation" is?

By the way: the judge's interpretation implies the current AWCA fully encompasses featureless rifles as well, given that the reloading of a button-less, feature-less rifle is faster than a BB'd rifle:
Quote:
The documents submitted by Defendants [...] desire to curtail the proliferation of weapons that are able to fire large numbers of rounds in a short period of time.
Quote:
the challenged regulations appear to carry out the intention of the Legislature, i.e., to require registration of “bullet button” firearms, based on the “finding that each firearm has such a high rate of fire and capacity for firepower that its function as a legitimate sports or recreational firearm is substantially outweighed by the danger that it can be used to kill and injure human beings.”
I can't fathom what a winning move for us looks like here. Not when the very people we petition for redress are, themselves, our most ardent enemies.

Well.... I can fathom, but not in public

Disassembling the entire firearm? Great, so now the courts are inventing new laws along with the DOJ.

So it sounds like buying even a featureless/fixed mag rifle right now is a bad idea until we see where this goes, no?

Good thing Heller decided that firearms are protected for self defense and not limited to sports or recreation (for all the good it's done us...).

The quote wasn't part of the ruling, specifically, but it was how the judge chose to summarize the background/history of the lawsuit. It's scary because it gives insight in to how these judges really think/feel.

The way I read it ANY firearm with a removable feeding device is now defined as an Assault Weapon and must be registered. This appears to ensnare the M1, M1A, Mini 14&30, and ANY other firearm with a detachable feeding device.
Am I correct in reading the Judges Decision?
Well IF the constitution and Bill of Rights are laws restricting Government, (ALL BRANCHES), then the Legislative and Judicial are beyond their authority.

I don't see it that way. The judge agreed that the DOJ can "basically do what they think the Legislators intended". No where in the DOJ regs say all detachable mag rifles are AW's. Just those with mag locks bought between 2001-2016.

What's disturbing is their "Post" registration regulation of not removing the mag lock. The "intent of the Legislators" was a mag lock was just as fast as a regular mag release (a loophole in the law). And as such, these are to be registered as an AW (mag lock=regular mag release). So why would these need to remain on after approved registration?

Based on the Judges "intent of the Legislators", the mag-lock should go bye bye after registration approval. Prior to approval, it should stay on to fit their new "category 4" registration. But after, no. It's just like any other AW (per the Legislators) and is even listed with past legally registered AW's on the approval letter you receive.

This is the argument I think our atty's should use. It's now been validated by a judge.

So when they say disassemble the entire firearm... are they talking detail strip or will field strip suffice?
So glad I left the state. Too bad I still live in the 9th's jurisdiction though.

Or, it gives insight into how little some of these judges understand what they're ruling on when they make their rulings.

I got official notification today from Michel & Associates since I am one of the named plaintiffs in this mess. Now I have to decide if I turn in my receiver for destruction, register, or go featureless. I really hate those options.

Pretty sure McDonald was an outgrowth of Heller. I also think the previous poster is implying that the ruling in Heller that the 2nd is a fundamental right is what has (so far) prevented cities like SF from completely banning firearms.

The way the judge gave his opinion: the intent of the law is to make them all assault weapons. However, given the MA loader (speed-loads a truly fixed mag through the ejection port), it implies the intent of the law (as far as this judge is concerned) is to ban all semi-auto. Period.

We all know what's next. Newscum signs the semi-auto ban that moonbeam vetoed. The only thing left for us to do is bet whether pistols are included.

If appealed all the way, hopefully SCOTUS will finally step in and act on a judge decision strictly contradicting Heller. Well, hopefully...

wow.....things just keep getting worse for us in the state. This combined with Gavin Newsom coming into office I am quickly losing any hope I held on to for 2A rights in this state.
