Should a federal judge be relieved of his duties if he’s unable to interpret historical legal analogues to modern law?

This is the job of a federal judge and his many clerks, yes? I understand liberal activist judges have been painted into a corner by Justice Thomas’ brilliant majority opinion in NYSRPA v Bruen. He closed all the loopholes and corrected every District and Circuit Court 2A interpretation error of the past decade. However, delaying or denying justice due to feigned ignorance isn’t an option. You can either do the job or you cannot do the job.

My second question here is why did this judge ask the case’s involved parties to opine on his ignorance, one of which is the partisan USDoJ. Instead, shouldn’t the hierarchy of federal Court governance have routed him to SCOTUS Justice Samuel Alito for guidance on how he should handle this procedural aspect of his work? Oh, maybe I just answered my own question there.





Knowing not everyone will be terribly interested in this nerd topic, I’ll tag a few of our OT attorneys and 2A advocates.
