Motion to hold DC in contempt in Wrenn
Posted by David Hardy · 27 May 2015 10:58 AM
It's the case that struck down DC's "may issue" permitting system. Now, SAF has moved to hold DC in contempt for not following the ruling, and DC has moved for a stay pending appeal. I think the contempt motion had the desired effect of goading DC into action.

How long will the court take to act on this motion? Is a hearing necessary?
Clearly both sides hold each other in contempt. Twice I got to talk directly with Gura on this ongoing saga. His words were entertaining.
Getting a court to agree that the behavior of the anti-civil-rights, anti-law, anti-Constitution DC establishment is, in fact, contemptible, would be good to see.
Since the DC establishment is so anti-rights, perhaps a bit of a lesson could be applied. Slavery was ended in DC via the District of Columbia Compensated Emancipation Act, but the 13th amendment still permits slavery as a punishment. So how about a 10 year term of chattel slavery for each party found in contempt? Would that be a fitting punishment? Is there some better punishment available?
