I was afraid that they were being held to give one or more of the justices time to write a dissent to the denial of cert.  It is now safe to assume that Rogers, Gould, Mance, and Pena are being held for the decision in NYSRPA v. NYC.

Status Updates
Today is June 27, 2019.

Update – June 27, 2019, – Another SCOTUS term has ended, more or less, with the question of whether or not there is a right to bear arms left unresolved.  SCOTUS neither granted nor denied the cert petitions in Rogers and Grewel, a decision in either by SCOTUS would answer that question.  The same is true of Mance (ban on the interstate sale of handguns) and Pena (a challenge to California’s prohibition on the sale of handguns not on the state’s approved roster).  It is safe to assume that these four Second Amendment petitions are being held for a decision in NYSRPA v. NYC.  I couldn’t say that with any certainty until today because another explanation as to why they were being held is that one or more justices were writing a dissent to the denial of their cert petitions.  The Justices will return for a “Long Conference” to be held the final week of September after which they might release a Miscellaneous Orders list granting cert petitions.  The Court officially reconvenes on October 1st when the Justices hold their first private conference of the 2019 Term.  On that day, the justices will release its first Orders list for the new term which will have listed around a 1,000 or more cert petitions denied and probably a handful of cert petitions granted.  NYSRPA v. NYC will probably be argued in late October or early November with a decision released by the end of the next term, the last week of June 2020.  If NYSRPA becomes moot then SCOTUS will most likely vacate the decision of the court of appeals and remand the case for it to be dismissed as moot.  That will give NYSRPA the ability to challenge the transportation ban should the city (or state) implement a new ban.  Holding on to the four 2A cert petitions also gives the Court the option of replacing NYSRPA with one or more of them should NYSRPA become moot.  There was no Orders list published today.  Over the summer there will probably be 20 or more miscellaneous orders published but no grants until the last week of September.
