Moates' withdrawal would leave just a single merchant still vowing to fight.Will he have to stand alone?
Jay Wallace, the owner of the Adventure Outdoors sporting goods store in Smyrna, Ga., has countersued Bloomberg and other city officials for libel in Georgia, saying they wrongly branded him as a rogue gun dealer. That case is pending.
His store also remains a defendant in the city's lawsuit. Wallace recently opted not to contest the suit at this stage in the hopes of speeding an appeal to a court more favorable to the gun industry. But he said he has no intention of quitting until his reputation is restored.
I also have a question about the dealers who submitted to extor...uh..."settled": As I understand it, the settlement includes allowing "monitors" to oversee their activities. Is there anything in this "agreement" that would prohibit them from notifying their customers if and when "observers" are on their premises--so that maybe we could send in a few camera and recorder-armed observers of our own?
UPDATE: Resistance is happening--and naturally, the Bloomber co-conspirators are portraying righteous anger as "erratic and threatening."
Here's the overseer who's assumes the title of "Special Massa ." Special, isn't he?

A large gun store here was robbed of a pistol by a man driving a Mercedes with New York license plates. Asked to see it, then ran out the door with it.
They should sue Bloomberg for exporting crime across state lines. It would make as much sense.
This is a real pickle for the freedom haters. The agreement clearly makes it so the lawyer on record is the only one who can inspect a dealers store and no one else. This may be a way to stick it to the scum in NYC and the contract they put together.
Like liberals do, they made up the rules and change the rules as they go along.
Frankly, a contract is a contract and thats the bottom line. This is a time the GOA and maybe the NRA (don't hold your breath for them) to get involved. NYC is not following their own agreement ending any enforcement of such agreements.
The dealers could have a field day with this. Only allow the lawyer of record to see any books, and no one else. Make the paperwork come as slow as they can costing this lawyer huge amounts of time. Tell every lawyer joke they can google to each other while he's there. The day before he gets there make sure every employee has lots of pickled eggs and corn beef hash to eat. I'm sure the store will smell like NYC at its best.
"Frankly, a contract is a contract and thats the bottom line."
Not if the other party held a gun to my head it's not.
They only THINK they've seen "erratic and threatening behavior."
It's about time.
Is Bloomberg going to sue the Mexican farmers because salmonella killed 150 Americans in a few weeks? Imagine how "erratic and threatening" THEY would become.
Here's something to ponder, maybe someone with more knowledge of the specifics and contacts with some of these store owners can make use of it.
If a gun sold from a "monitored" store ends up illegally in NYC, why could not the monitor be liable and thusly sued to the poorhouse, with repercussion reaching all the way back to Bloomberg who allowed it?
I think they have lain themselves wide open for such a lawsuit and their own words and contracts can be used against them.
I think the "Special Master" looks like Freddy Krueger with out make-up!
I forget the actors name...
