Not sure what you are getting at,
SAF is bringing this case to the NJ courts AFTER the D.C. vs. Heller decision.
D.C. vs. Heller ... would not affect the state’s ability to impose reasonable restrictions on ownership and possession.
SAF is now trying to litigate the gray area of the Heller decision. They picked the state with the most (or 2nd most) restrictive gun ownership laws in the country, and a state without a state Constitution equivalent to the US 2nd Amendment.
THis whole case is a gray area, and the reason why most gun owners in NJ were not pleased with the Heller decision, it does nothing to bring relief to New Jerseyites living under the yoke of arbitrary and capricious permitting decisions by nanny state career bureaucrats in law enforcement and judiciary here. Worse, a single bad decision in the 3rd District and New Jerseyites could lose more gun ownership privileges than gained by an overly broad definition of “state’s ability to impose reasonable restrictions on ownership and possession.”
I really hope SAF has an airtight case and top notch lawyers because they will be facing a hostile court, hostile judges, hostile local, county and state government lawyers, hostile media, and hostile law enforcement officers’ and chiefs’ unions.
On top of that, your RKBA rights in Penna are on the line here... if SAF loses, the next RKBA prosecution or lawsuit in Penna could rule stare decisis in ‘SAF vs NJ’ for the 3rd district.
Judge Filko... I know personally has a rule of blanket prohibition of gun permits unless the applicant is connected to the Passaic County Democrat Party or the Sheriff’s Dept.
