With all the different scenarios discussed on this website, I have taken the time to think beyond the Chicago case and created a list of the different areas that will have to be addressed or resolved in the future.
I could be wrong, but my gut is telling methat if the Second Amendment applies to the states, there will be many old questions that need to be answered and many existing policies and practices that will have to be changed or litigated.
I have tried without success to find ALL the current cases that involve Second Amendment issues and can't get an accurate list of what is currently in the pipeline.
Here is what I currently believe:
The Connecticut Goldberg and Kuck cases both of which were heard by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals on September 17, 2009 may be the first decisions rendered by a U.S. Appellate Court following the soon to be arguedChicago Case and any decision that follows.
There are other federal cases in the pipeline at various stages, but I don't see anythat are in the position of Goldberg and Kuck.
I could be wrong, but hope I'm right.
The Heller Decision – Established that the Second Amendment is an individual right in Federal Jurisdictions
The Chicago case – Will determine if the Second Amendment applies to individual States and Territories
Unresolved questions and issues that may find there way into the Federal Court System if the Second Amendment is Incorporated to the states.
