“Northam is gaming the system and is clearly afraid of the suit being heard in a Virginia court under Virginia law,” VCDL President Philip Van Cleave told AmmoLand News.
And that's because the Virginia is much more conservative than the Fourth Circuit.
Also, compare Art. I, Sec. 13.
My first thought: a delaying tactic. They need more than 24 hours to acquire or accomplish something crucial to their case.
