But, here, they won the WAR but lost the BATTLE.

For the foregoing reasons, we AFFIRM the district court’s

First Amendment and equal protection claims and, although
we conclude that the Second Amendment is indeed incorporated
against the states
, we AFFIRM the district court’s
refusal to grant the Nordykes leave to amend their complaint
to add a Second Amendment claim in this case.

So, how does a 9th circuit decision affect anyone not in the 9th circuit?

IIRC, if circuits disagree, it makes it more likely the SC will rule to even things out ...


I'd appreciate a wiser or more experienced answer to your question though as it's a good one.

The circuit and district stuff just means from what geography the court may entertain cases, whether they come to the federal court initially or hop over from a state/municipal court. The courts' decisions have weight across the board.

I should amend that. By rights the implications of the courts' rulings are widespread. Like AGs in New England might mention 5th District cases in statements and whatnot. But sometimes they come up at odds with each other. Activist or otherwise incredibly reckless judges are the problem. High-horsers.

Of course, what do you expect when appointing someone to that kind of position?

For us non-lawyer types, is that precedent or dicta?

As was pointed out in the other thread, we need to wait and see if the full 9th Cir. takes this case en banc.

Here is a summary on one way the Nordyke case could get reviewed by the Supreme Court:

Quote:
None of this, however, would be resolved during the Court’s current Term. ... The Maloney case on “chukas” — and perhaps the Nordyke case on guns, as well — could be ready for the Justices’ action early in the new Term starting in October.
