It's not clear what this is, but it's nearly identical to the 11/11 filing.

It seems the opposition relies heavily on Teixeira which I think is dead because it used the two step process.

Here's why they think it's relevant,

This is bogus, because you can see in their quotes from Teixeira case the judge claimed the state can impede people ability to obtain guns, but that's not the standard. They can't impede you ability to get arms period.

[abinsinia]

The judge is John W. Holcomb. He was nominated by Trump.

This footnote on page 10 seems to indicate that the historic laws they showcase are racist laws, but current day Democrat laws really aren't racist. They're trying to inoculate against being called racist in later briefs.

The court should ask California "if these laws were based on now unconstitutional reasons how are they relevant at this time"?

I was hoping for more spreadsheets but I guess not.

Still sounds like a 1A issue if I can't verbally agree to purchase a firearm while standing on the property.

[abinsinia]

Some interesting things in the order.

I don't know what history California can provide to the judge. Seems like there might be something they can slap together, but it would not surprise me if there is literally no history and I don't know what they do at that point.
