Baring conflicts with my work, I'll be going to this hearing tomorrow. I've never been in a court before, is there anything special that I should pay attention to? And how long does an omnibus hearing normally last?

12 minutes

Just be seated, make sure you cell phone is off before you go in.

So, I show up at 1:25, turns out they schedule all of the afternoon hearing for 1:30, then run them in order. Mr. Rose's case was number 14. Unfortunately, I had to be back to work at 3pm, so I had to leave before his hearing.

According to the website (http://pa.courts.state.mn.us/CaseDetail ... 1611921322), he plead not guilty, with a trial date set for Feb 24.

I am sure I am searching wrong, I can not find anything on this case going forward. I wondering if this is a potential for the NRA to help out with to set a legal precedence? Be easy on me now.

The NRA very, very rarely gets involved in criminal defense. I'm not saying that's good or bad, just that it is.

Gentle enough?

Yes, I was just reading up on the Civil Rights Defense Fund and they do admit they do not have funds for everything but do get involved with some. I am sure it is the ones that get them the most bang for the buck. Still can't find the case :(

Sure. Think "ACLU." (In a good way.) They tend not to take cases that are either guaranteed losers or swing on matters of fact, but ones that try to establish precedents. And then they really have to -- and ought to -- choose very carefully.

What precedent would be established here? I'm not saying that there couldn't be one -- but what would it be?

Well it IMO is like they are treating him as if he used deadly force. If in fact he was justified, why take his guns, put him on a strict probation. It is like he is guilty until proven innocent. Kind of back words. Reasonable cause?

Eh, at least it is an actual order of the court. Of course his attorney should have fought the Constitutionality of denying 2nd ammendment rights to an unconvicted man.

Anyone know what the result was here or is it still ongoing?

Unfortunately, I was unable to make it to the trial, been real busy this week.

The courts website (http://pa.courts.state.mn.us/default.aspx, case 55-CR-08-6518) shows the case as still open, but no updates. I haven't seen anything in the news here on this case.

Not sure if it matters at all, but the Zabawa case (Waseca farmhouse murders last year) is going though jury selection at the same courthouse.

I did a search of the Rochester Post Bulletin online site and came up with nothing.
