Newsom decided to use a vacant duplex and convert it into the bouncy ball machine, as in order to have enough space for the balls as well as the ability for them to bounce, they needed a container that was at least the same dimensions as a cube 65 feet wide.

It’s stayed pending appeal, it’ll be tossed out. Then appealed again. So hold onto your pants.

Celexi posted:Ca ban on assault rifles just got overturned lmao For example in his "Freedom Week" decision (Duncan v Becerra; Challenging the ban on possession of grandfathered 11+ round magazines), the judgement resulted in immediately re-legalizing the purchase of 11+ round magazines; this happened for a week while the AG and Plaintiffs argued loudly over letters and then Benitez did a partial stay on his decision after the AG threatened to file an emergency stay motion to the appeals court; the stay protected those who purchased during that week until the resolution of the case... which is actually En Banc currently and Oral Arguments are taking place on uh... 22nd of this month? I think he's the favorite the judge as a go-to for gun rights groups in California now, assuming they can find a plaintiff in the San Diego area. A lot of said cases seem to be filed in San Diego (which is CA Southern Federal District, which Benitez resides in) and I imagine it's so they might draw him as a Federal District Judge. He's issued favorable gun rights opinions in the Duncan v Becerra (mentioned above) and Rhode v Becerra (Ammo background checks). In this case however, as part of his opinion, while he did a judgement basically saying the featured assault weapon ban (as opposed to named assault weapons) was unconstitutional, he also baked in a 30 day temporary stay on his own opinion to give the AG plenty of time to file for appeal and their own temporary stay with the Motions Panel (So the AG didn't need to batphone an emergency motion); based off of there being "serious questions" as referenced by case law/precedent. Opinion: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.casd.642089/gov.uscourts.casd.642089.115.0.pdf Docket: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/16069141/miller-v-becerra/?filed_after=&filed_before=&entry_gte=&entry_lte=&order_by=desc Rodenthar Drothman posted:It’s stayed pending appeal, it’ll be tossed out. Edit: Also at the 3-judge-panel appeal level, there's a ~25% chance that a pro-2A panel is drawn, and at the En Banc 11-judge-panel level, there's about a ~5% chance that a pro-2A panel is drawn, based off a spreadsheet another goon maintains mapping judges to various 2A decisions (and failing any 2A decisions, their nominating party). The chances at the 3-judge-panel appeal level doesn't take into account visiting judges from other circuits, since that can't be accounted for. I also used to check the Motions Panel to see how they might rule on a stay motion as part of an appeal, but the 9th Circuit abruptly stopped posting which judges were assigned to the Motions Panel for the current month a number of months ago without any announcement.

BeAuMaN posted:Yes, from the beginning it was understood that this case will probably go all the way to petition SCOTUS for review. CA AG is going to appeal and request stay pending conclusive decision immediately, the case will be heard by a 3 judge panel, then whoever loses will appeal En Banc; En Banc will definitely be granted if the state loses and probably be granted if the plaintiffs lose; then whoever loses (plaintiffs would most likely lose at En Banc) is going to file certiorari with SCOTUS. Assuming Plaintiffs lost En Banc, then it's a question whether SCOTUS will actually grant cert and take the case. It will probably be another 2 - 4 years until the case is granted/denied cert by SCOTUS. In a 7-2 decision…

Giving me the lottery prize wouldn't hurt either. The Gavinbux are part of the budget so can't be sent until the budget passes the legislature and gets signed; that has a deadline of the 15th. It should take just a few days to a week for a direct deposit to happen as soon as the budget gets signed, though. Gavin needs to start yelling at the legislature so that I get my money if he wants me to vote against the recall.

https://ktla.com/news/local-news/sheriff-villanuevas-decision-to-deploy-deputies-to-venice-homeless-encampments-draws-city-councilmans-ire/quote:Sheriff Alex Villanueva waded into the morass of homelessness in Los Angeles this week by deploying a team of deputies to the Venice boardwalk, a tinderbox in the city’s struggle to deal with the mounting crisis. Looks like the Sheriff is going to get the state sued for violating Martin v Boise out in Venice. Also just another example of police having more power than elected officials, and their only solution to homelessness is criminalization. LA feels totally hosed to me. I have noticed the population of the park I do outreach in growing even as PATH manages to get a few people into hotel rooms, doesn't seem like the city can keep up. Once people start getting evicted again I imagine things are going to get worse.

Imagine if you could elect your Police Chief instead of having to rely upon your mayor and/or city council to deal with them.

The biggest difference with a DA vs. a sheriff is that if an outsider is elected to be DA, they can fire everyone under them that doesn't want to follow their policies, which is what Boudin did immediately upon taking office, an outsider sheriff wouldn't be able to clean house.
