This very well may be the "Big One" that Jazz mentioned.

Quote:
The case moved to the appellate court, with the National Rifle Association siding with the pro-gun faction, while the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence joined the District. Reflecting the case's national importance, various state governments lined up on each side.
Quote:
If the District appeals, the first step would be to seek a review by the full D.C. Circuit. After that decision, the Supreme Court could be asked to review the case. Constitutional scholars said the case is ripe for an airing before the Supreme Court no matter who might prevail in an appeal.
It should be interesting to follow the progress of this decision.
