He pointed to a recent decision to grant en banc review in a Second Amendment case where the panel decision was seen as a defeat for gun control advocates. Hellman said he wonders if the liberal majority on the court would be as likely to take up such a case with four Trump appointees in the mix. While a conservative panel decision might be seen as "distinguishable," he said, an en banc decision could be "harder to get around" when deciding future cases. "It has a stature that a panel decision doesn't." |

TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
