Sorry if dupe, didn't find anything via Google search.
https://www.nraila.org/articles/20201217/nra-takes-carry-case-to-scotus THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17, 2020 FAIRFAX, Va. - The National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) has partnered with the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association (NYSRPA) today to ask the Supreme Court to hear a challenge to New York's restrictive process for issuing concealed carry licenses. "As long as New York continues denying law-abiding gun owners their Second Amendment rights, the NRA will continue fighting to protect and expand those rights," said Jason Ouimet, executive director of NRA-ILA. The case, NYSRPA v. Corlett, challenges New York's requirement for applicants to demonstrate "proper cause" to carry a firearm. While New York routinely employs this arbitrary standard to deny carry permits, the NRA argues that this right should be available to "all 'the people'" instead of a "subset of the people that can distinguish themselves from their fellow Americans" by showing proper cause. Any additional info on this? Timeline? |

It is good news.
Its also the case that could kick things off. Given the 5.5 to 3.5 make up of the SCOTUS, there is a pretty good chance of a good outcome both to accept the case and to prevail. If Harris-Biden make good on their threat to pack the court, it would be done to prevent us from winning on this case, its just too important in the scheme of gun control. Losing a case is one thing, and would be bad enough, but to change the SCOTUS on a case like this right after the election of 2020 would not end well. Add to the mix that gun control was not an issue that they ran on as a priority, and after all the focus being on the other goodies the left promised such as climate change, social justice and whatever, abandoning those to focus on gun control early on would piss off a lot on the left too. Having all this occur right in the middle of covid, which should be his first focus, makes it even more obvious that we have a billionaire with an agenda who is in charge to advance his agenda at any cost. That being said, we need to push ahead like things are normal until it is even more obvious that they are not. |

Take it from someone that spent 6 months in up state NY
Nothing will happen and they will make it even harder in the future as punishment for even brining it up. I took my stuff and GTFO and do not regret it. There has been a mass exodus from NY so anyone that stays just has to accept the fact and deal with it. Don't tell me you can't leave either i was just up there and their is still no checkpoint or wire on the NY border to other states. There is just something there you value more then freedom that's all. |

The entire state would have to become shall issue to moot the case, since NYSRPA is a party to the proceedings and is claiming their members have been harmed. And given the Justices that cried foul over NYSRPA v NYC being mooted only after cert was granted, I bet they will not tolerate a repetition. NYSRPA has Paul Clement running the case, the same lawyer that represented the United States in Heller (as Solicitor General), the NRA in McDonald v Chicago (Yes, it was Gura's case), and NYSRPA against NYC. He's the guy you hire if you want cert granted and intend to win the case no matter the cost. Kharn |

I just don't see the stars aligning on any of these. I don't think SCOTUS will take it since they really don't take gun cases. If it looks like they will, NY will quickly change the law so its moot. If they don't and SCOTUS takes the case, it'll be decided so narrowly it won't make a difference. See heller for example, where everyone likes to insist it's so groundbreaking - cool. What'd it change? |

Kharn Dems will freak out over ANY perceived loss of power or control, and a major 2A win would be just that. So what's to keep them from taking gun cases also to mitigate the likelihood of court packing? |

I wish people on here weren't so sense and sheep like. The NRA under Wayne's leadership is in complete disarray. However the NRA-ILA is a different entity with different leadership and has continued to do great things even with Wayne's shadow hanging over them. THE best defense and safest place for donations to help fund gun rights is the NRA-ILA. Wayne can't touch a dime of what is donated there.

It's an unconstitutional INFRINGMENT if as a law abiding citizen with no Malice Michief Or criminal intent Engaged in no Malicious Mischievous or criminal activity.
