What constitutional law junkie can’t get excited about the Supreme Court taking up for only the second time (and first time since 1939) a Second Amendment case? At issue in the case, D.C. v. Heller, is Washington D.C.’s 31-year old handgun ban, which the D.C. Circuit Court found unconsitutional.

Representing the District of Columbia are Thomas Goldstein and Christopher Egleson of Aiken Gump and Walter Dellinger, Matthew Shors, Mark Davies and Geoffrey Wyatt of O’Melveny & Myers. A whole bunch of the folks in the District’s AG office are also on the brief: Todd Kim, Linda Singer, Alan Morrison, Edward Schwab, Donna Murasky and Lutz Prager.

Representing Dick Heller, the D.C resident challenging the ban, are Alan Gura, Robert Levy and Clark Neily of Gura & Possessky.
