I agree, the Supremes won't hear another case related to Heller for decades (maybe even any 2a case). From here on out this is all going to happen in the lower courts.
I disagree.
While I would agree that the Supremes generally don't like to hear multiple cases on very similar issues, here there will be tremendous fights (like the one the DC is causing) by cities and states unwilling to give up the ghost.
You will have Circuit Courts doing the same thing. The 9th Circus won't willingly give up the ghost on the gun issue, IMHO, and when there's a disagreement between Circuits, the USSC will pretty much have to decide the issue.
This particular case may well end up in the USSC - notice that the plaintiff has asked that all fees for registration be waived. Do you think that the same idiots that allowed Heller I to go all the way will let their precious fees go without a fight?
I also forsee a USSC case over incorporation and over the '86 machine gun ban.
