    To echo:

    MSJ = Motion for Summary Judgement.

    Heller was the case we all saw Alan Gura argue in DC. Heller II is Dick Heller's follow up with Stephen Halbrook and NRA representing Dick Heller.

      What is the status of Heller II and what is at stake there?

        It looks like DC considers semi-auto pistols to be machine guns, and so has banned them. Really!

FENTY, Mayor, District of Columbia, Defendants CIVIL ACTION NO. COMPLAINT (For Declaratory Judgment, Injunctive Relief, and Writ of Mandamus) 1. This is an action to […]


        From reading a bit, it also looks like it's impossible to buy a gun in DC. The city won't allow a gun store to open, and residents can't buy guns in neighboring states.

          It's an "all that and the kitchen sink" challenge to DC's laws. It's very early and Halbrook has laid out a very long timeline for it. It does include AW challenges and challenges to registration as well as a duplicate challenge to the CA Handgun Roster.

              It's been filed but its timelines are much longer than our case.

                      Holy necropost, batman!

                      The case was dismissed because all of the plaintiff's guns became registerable.

                        We tend to consider this Washington Post Article the end of the case.
