The Supreme Court is likely not going to hear this case unless another circuit court rules to strike down a state’s may issue licensing policy, where the 9th Circuit would be in disagreement with one of its sister courts – that seems to be the only situation when the Court grants cert in cases similar to this, where the issue is considered by the Court to be ripe for review.
The problem is that there are very few states with may issue licensing policies, most states being shall issue, or have no license requirement at all.
The Court may also be content to allow Second Amendment jurisprudence to continue to evolve at the state level.
