Here we go again.
As Twitchy reported, a federal judge in California last week declared the state’s 10-round limit on firearms magazines unconstitutional and “permanently enjoined from being enforced.”
California’s Attorney General Xavier Becerra isn’t giving up, though. The California Department of Justice on Monday night filed a motion asking the court to stay its ruling.

California is demonstrating it will go to great lengths to avoid recognizing your #2A rights to own arms in common use for lawful purposes. https://t.co/bktYsFxqAl

If only state attorneys general were bound by some constraints over the likelihood of success of an appeal, like there are in the real world.

Considering the Judge eviscerated every argument they have presented, and they shotgunned all of the extant arguments used by anti's, I rate their chances low.

Yes but you are dealing with the ideologues of the 9th Circuit.

It would be lovely, but unexpected, if the court politely told the California DOJ to f off. Using big words so it took the DOJ a while to understand.

He can ask for a stay all he wants he can ask for chimichangas or tamales for all i care, the Constitution is clear my second amendment rights shall not be infringed!

The state has requested a partial stay on the judge's order, asking that the ban on buying magazines continue while the case is being appealed. Don't be surprised if you see a ruling from the 9th Circuit doing just that later this week. https://t.co/P5QyKQFyQz

SCOTUS TIME!

Why are they fighting tooth-n-nail to continue infringing people’s #2A rights?? None of these laws have demonstrated any affect on reducing violence or crime in California.

Nothing makes sense in California.
