The 7th Circuit Circuit, made Chicago pay Alan Gura & the NRA's legal fees yesterday for litigating McDonald v. Chicago. A copy of the opinion is attached.
Interestingly the District Court ruled that McDonald had not prevailed since Chicago dropped the gun ordinance, after the SCOTUS opinion, but prior to the trial court entering an injunction.
