So Moore v. Madigan won't be getting appealed to SCOTUS?

With Illinois voting and over-riding Gov. Quinn's Amendatory veto and enacting the final concealed carry state in the nation does that mean Madigan will not/can not appeal Moore v. Madigan to SCOTUS?



Since Illinois met the 7th Circuits requirements there is no right to appeal to SCOTUS, correct?

Lisa Madigan was quoted as saying appealing it to the SCOTUS would be moot since the bill is now law.

Bummer.

It depends on the judge that found the previous law to be unconstitutional in the light of Heller and MacDonald.

While he didn’t have to, he gave the Illinois legislature the opportunity to pass a new law, or amend the one on the books, to remedy his objections. Now that the Illinois government has taken the opportunity to pass this new law the judge will have to decide if those objections have been remedied. If not I suspect he will reject the proposed remedy (law). Otherwise this case will be finished unless someone files an appeal.

Is there another case in Orange County CA getting started?
