21-1194 DUNCAN, VIRGINIA, ET AL. V. BONTA, ATT'Y GEN. OF CA
The petitions for writs of certiorari are granted. The judgments are vacated, and the cases are remanded to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit for further consideration in light of New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v. Bruen, 597 U. S. ___ (2022).
Cert was granted in Duncan v Bonta, the case that challenged CAs 10 round magazine requirement. It granted cert, reversed the 9th Circuit en banc ruling overturning Judge Benitez's summary judgement and remanded it back to the 9th Circuit. A 3 judge panel of the 9th had upheld Judge Benitez, but an en banc panel of 11 judges overruled the panel and district court.

SCOTUS also granted cert to three other gun cases, vacating the circuit courts and remanding for further review in consideration of the Bruen decision.
Association of New Jersey Rifle, et al. v. Bruck...the lawsuit challenges the constitutionality of New Jersey’s fees and permit requirements for firearm ownership and magazine size restrictions.
Bianchi v. Frosh...challenges MD ban on assault rifles.
Young v. Hawaii...challenged the en banc 9th Circuit ruling upholding HI ban on open carry since concealed carry licenses are impossible to obtain.

Duncan was remanded back to the 9th Circuit so we'll have to see if the 9th panel or Benitez vacates the stay and we're finally able to buy "regular size" magazines, not "large capacity" as CAs AG calls them.
