Hence the requirement of a yearly mental check.
No one can remain a judge for very long before they get too used the robes and the "your honor" BS.
I'm for calling them, in court, HEY ASSHOLE!

Keep it real.

It has to get to the Supreme Court before it can be overturned, and SCOTUS is declining to hear appeals of such cases lately.

Quote:
The Supreme Court declined to hear two gun-rights cases on Monday, continuing a trend of refusing such cases going back several years.

The Court decided not to take up either Kolbe v. Hogan or Norman v. Florida in their latest order list. The two cases represent challenges to Maryland and Florida's gun-control laws. Kolbe challenged the constitutionality of Maryland's ban on certain semi-automatic rifles and handguns. Norman challenged Florida's ban on the open carry of firearms in public.

The gun laws in both cases were upheld in lower courts. The Supreme Court's decision not to take up either case means the lower court rulings and the laws will remain in place.

The Court's reluctance to take up gun-rights cases in recent years has left gun-rights activists and even some members of the Court frustrated. When the Court refused to hear Peruta v. California, a challenge to California's restrictive gun-carry laws, Justice Gorsuch and Justice Thomas filed a dissent.

The NRA and the California Rifle and Pistol Association are suing the state over a new law limiting residents to purchasing ammo only from in-state vendors. Any ammo ordered online must be delivered to a licensed gun dealer, who will charge a handling fee.

The suit also addresses a new law to become effective on 1/1/19 requiring a background check on every purchase of ammo.
