A born and raised in SE Montana firearms friendly website developer. I create and maintain independent localized online tools to help law abiding gun owners and gun industry businesses promote, protect, exercise and reclaim lost firearms freedoms. In my previous life I was a 20 year operator and trainer in the emergency roadside service industry. Starting with a childhood and teen years spent in school, farming and family construction in Miles City, MT. Then beyond to Reno, Las Vegas and Northern California. After having a child, my wife and I moved from Tracy, California back to Montana to raise him here. My health has restricted me from working outside of my home now. This is now my service to fellow Montanans. VOTE to help keep Montana pro-gun and I'll keep building and maintaining tools for us to exercise our RTKBA. Feature ads or donate to help keep the lights on and keep me motivated.
The maximum extension they could get, even if the DOJ requests an extension due to "excusable neglect" or "good cause," under the law (Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 4) limits this extension to no more than 30 additional days past the original deadline.
Once this 90-day total window closes, the right to appeal is finally permanently forfeited. There is no legal mechanism to reopen the appeal process after that for a standard judgment like this.
So nothing is finished, not even close...
The AG says he is going to address this with a letter of "unenforcability" but I don't believe for a single moment that the hired municipal thug class will abide...plus the Montana gang of Supremes will never let that stand unless they are forced to do so.
