DC gun ban gets closer to the Supreme Court

SCOTUSBlog reports that the two gun ban cases will be considered by the Supremes in just a few weeks. ^[1]

The earliest that an order on the fate of the two cases would emerge is probably Tuesday, Nov. 13. The case, if granted, would probably be heard in February or March.

One of our actual lawyer readers can proof me on this, but they could well decide not to get involved in the matter and – as I understand it – that would end the matter, leaving things how the DC circuit decided – striking the ban. How soon after would the temporary stay expire, anyone know?
