Divided Sixth Circuit Panel Rejects Chevron Deference for Interpretation of Criminal Statute

A long awaited decision in a challenge to the Trump Administration's "bump stock" ban tees up some interesting questions for the High Court's review.

The push back on Chevron deference is probably more important than the view of bump stocks. I don't expect it to stand if it gets reviewed by SCOTUS but at least there are a few pushing back.

I wouldn't celebrate. This ruling is just to get it to SCOTUS so they can permaban them, along with God knows what else.

or it will stay and only effect the states covered by the 6th court .. not a pew pew pew machine in these states ..

 

[Modean]

Watch this get re-heard by the 6th enbanc and reversed. That's the usual route they take when a correct 2a ruling gets issued.

Does this mean I can put belt loops back on my pants?

Or there is another case in a different circuit (have to look it up if there actually is) and they rule differently than the 6th, causing a split in the lower courts so the SCOTUS has to step in for clarification

It probably won't matter once the feds pass a law stating that pistol grips make rifles 'assault weapons' and the whole firearm gets banned....

While I’m happy about this but I don’t think this was the best place to put our money, time, and effort. I’ve actually never seen one. Now do I think they should be banned hell no but I’d rather see a mag capacity challenge or something way more impactful.

 

[Edwardteach72]

Years later and people still don't understand what any of this is about..

It has nothing to do with bump stocks

You mean like the what 4 or so that the same group is currently fighting???

I hope the company who turned in hundreds of these for distraction sues the shit out of the Fed (1 billion or more) and uses this case in support of the taking claim.

I belive that shop who turned them in is the one who filed this suit
