The Jackson v. San Francisco page at my website -> http://blog.californiarighttocarry.org/?page_id=1776
Update September 1, 2015 by Charles Nichols – President of California Right To Carry – Pursuant to the Order of the court dated August 14, 2015, the Plaintiffs filed an Unopposed Request to Dismiss Case and a Proposed Order to Dismiss the Case under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Rule 41(a)(2). Unless the district court judge decides otherwise, the dismissal is without prejudice which means that the Plaintiffs can refile their lawsuit at a later date. If the district court judge decides to dismiss the case with prejudice then the Plaintiffs would have to file an immediate appeal of the dismissal with prejudice. If they did not appeal then the Plaintiffs would not be able to challenge the law in the future. This lawsuit was filed on May 5, 2009. Between the initial filing of the Complaint and the Unopposed Request by the Plaintiffs to dismiss the case there are 167 docket entries (inclusive) and the lawsuit never made it past the denial of a preliminary injunction and that took over six years.
Unless the current US Supreme Court indicates a willingness to hear Second Amendment cases absent a circuit split for the justices to resolve, the lower courts will continue to pretend the Heller and McDonald decisions never happened. If Stare Decisis did not apply to this case then there is no such thing as Stare Decisis. The inferior courts are free to ignore binding precedents.
Fortunately, if I should lose my California Open Carry case on appeal then my loss will create multiple circuit splits, and not just on the Second Amendment. Were SCOTUS to deny my cert petition then the only thing left to conclude is that the high court is done with the Second Amendment.
