  2. @smn - I just set up a Google calendar with all of these dates. It is titled No Lawyers - Only Guns and Money gun rights cases. I made it a public calendar. If there is more I need to do, let me know as I'm kinda new on some of these Google tools.

    Hopefully, the judge will get off his behind and rule on this.
