The Benson magazine ban case in DC has seen a major shift. The full DC Court of Appeals has agreed to rehear the case 'en banc,' effectively wiping out a prior ruling that struck down DC's ban on magazines holding more than 10 rounds. This means the previous decision is no longer controlling law. Furthermore, the appellant, Tyrie Benson, has requested a 60-day extension to file his brief, seeking to incorporate upcoming Supreme Court rulings in *Wolfford v. Lopez* and *US v. Hommani*. These cases are expected to clarify how the Bruen analysis is applied to Second Amendment challenges, potentially impacting the Benson case's outcome. The Supreme Court's decisions are anticipated by late June or early July, with Benson requesting an extension until July 20th to allow for this incorporation.
