But how long will it take to get his butt back into court? I suspect it will take some time.
I attempted to explain that the court situation in D.C. is VERY fast, compared to having to litigate first in state court, then into federal court.

At anytime, Congress could step in, and overturn the laws.
At anytime the Supreme Court could pull the cases up, and hear them.

Federal judges, much less the Supreme Court don't take failure to follow precedent lightly.

Heller does clear the way to get into court quickly, since they are now dealing in a clarified area of law, and, an individual constitutional right.
