The justices' conference is private. Order list is out this morning. There's no mention of any of the 10 gun cases that were distributed for last Friday's conference. That's not a surprise at all. I suspect there's a lot of 'horse trading' going on in terms of which petition(s) to hear, which to deny, which to hold, and what concurrences or dissents will be written. I'd not be surprised if they issue a Miscellaneous Order to deal with these.I believe it's private. I don't think they list the orders until Monday morning.

Nothing like having the ability to basically ignore human rights ad infinitum at your own leisure.
Explain to me again why SCOTUS should not be required to either accept a case or remand it back with guidance to every single case in less than a few weeks? The idea they just get to do nothing on the majority of cases is ridiculous.
There literally isn't enough time. Something like 1% of cases that "taken to SCOTUS" actually get heard.
And we really don't want cases to be rushed through.
There's good reasons for not taking a case.
Indeed, timing is everything. Heller would not have turned out had it did if it was brought 10 or even 5 years earlier. It was risky as it was. We need to have things happen at the right time. For Christ-sake, look how long it took to eliminate overt racial segregation.There literally isn't enough time. Something like 1% of cases that "taken to SCOTUS" actually get heard.

These ten cases have been relisted for conference this Friday, May 15![]()
BREAKING: Supreme Court Relists All 10 Second Amendment Cases Considered in Thursday's Conference - The Truth About Guns
A number of Second Amendment cases — 10 in all — have been in suspended animation. The Cases involving everything from “may issue” carry permits to banning “assault weapons” to interstate sales of handguns have been at the Supreme Court for consideration — some for years — and have been punted...www.thetruthaboutguns.com

That's correct. Presumably all will be relisted since there were no denials. Waiting is probably good. That means the justices are working on it. Denials come fast. Grants are slower. And grants in complex, multi-petitions issues are slower still.So now we wait to see if any, or all, are relisted for conference this week, and then orders next Tuesday (Mon holiday) correct?

It might be really hard for four justices to agree on which petition(s) to grant, which to hold, and which to deny. They all probably have a different idea of how the court act on these ten petitions.
The court denied cert in Nassau County v. Orlando (18-1421) after rescheduling the case for conference more than 20 times.
It's likely much more complicated than that. They'll probably only hear one carry case, or maybe they'll combine two for oral arguments. You might have 5 or 6 justices who want to hear one of the petitions, but there might not be four who agree on which petition(s) to hear.for some reason I'm just not surprised... I bet there is one Justice holding these cases up but not ruling them out completely
DISTRIBUTED for Conference of 5/21/2020.
