En banc arguments in a controversial gun rights case were animated Thursday, but don't be surprised if the 9th Circuit sits on this one for awhile. The U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to decide next week whether to grant cert in a 7th Circuit case involving the same issue, whether the Second Amendment binds the states. "That may well give us an answer, and there would be no need for us to decide this case," Judge Stephen Reinhardt said. Judge Susan Graber echoed the sentiment at another point in the argument.

En banc arguments in a controversial gun rights case were animated Thursday, but don’t be surprised if the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sits on this one for awhile.
A federal appellate court in Chicago said in June that the Second Amendment should not restrict state gun control laws until the Supreme Court rules that the right binds the states. The high court is scheduled to make up its mind next week about whether to grant cert.
