1. Another case hastily decided before McDonald comes out..

In her order dated Thursday, U.S. District Judge Marsha J. Pechman granted a motion to dismiss the suit in full, writing that Warden's "Second Amendment claim fails for the simple reason that the Second Amendment does not apply to the City of Seattle under current 9th Circuit law."

Does anyone have a link to the text for the pleadings and ruling? What I find interesting is that this judge ruled on the second amendment, but the previous judge ruled on the pre-emption law. Did Warden's counsel change their arguments?
