nice move... Sieze the records THEN file an opposition motion...
It does not matter what they do now, the ATF has the data.
Order them to destroy their copy? “Um.. yeah, sure we’ll destroy it” *wink*
The motion was filed before the raid. The questionable part is that they baldly state, in the first sentence, I believe, that the lowers in question are “illegal guns”.
As whether they are or not is the crux of the entire matter, it is disengeneous of them to make the claim to the judge.
Essentially they are saying “This guy is breaking the law, because we say he is breaking the law, and we simply won’t mention that we told him he wasn’t breaking the law last year. We changed our minds, and the judge doesn’t need to know that.”
