Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bianchi v. Brown case about?

Bianchi v. Brown is a legal challenge to Maryland's assault weapon ban. The case has a long history and is significant because Maryland's ban mirrors laws in several other states, making its outcome crucial for Second Amendment rights nationwide.

How are courts allegedly trying to disarm citizens in cases like Bianchi v. Brown?

The argument is that courts intentionally slow down legal processes, including lengthy delays in hearings and decisions, to keep firearms out of the hands of law-abiding citizens. This 'aging out' of cases can effectively maintain existing restrictions.

What was the Supreme Court's role in the Bianchi v. Brown case?

Following the Bruen ruling, the Supreme Court granted review (GVR'd) in Bianchi v. Brown, vacating the lower court's decision and remanding it to the Fourth Circuit to rule consistent with Bruen. This action initiated a new phase of litigation.

Why is the Fourth Circuit's delay in Bianchi v. Brown significant?

The Fourth Circuit is only now, over two years after the remand, granting an en banc rehearing for Bianchi v. Brown. This prolonged delay, with oral arguments in March 2024 and a potential ruling in 2025, exemplifies the extensive time it can take for significant Second Amendment cases to be resolved.
