Hypothetical question

Suppose one gets popped prior to the restaurant bill being passed. Then suppose the court date gets extended pass the date that the bill takes effect. Is the case then dismissed and no action taken, HCP and gun returned?

Now supposed the restaurant bill is passed and just waiting the date to take effect. Do you see any LEO taking the time and effort to enforce the old law knowing that its not going to come to trial?

I believe that the law of the time is what sticks, no matter what has passed since the time of the arrest and the trial date. Which leads to the fact the law is the law until the day it changes. So the LEO could pop you up until midnight the day before.

I've never yet heard of a case where anyone has been charged with this period.

If the law goes into effect July 1, then you could still be charged on June 30....whether an officer would or not...well who knows...I'm sure within in the whole state there are at least a handful that would, but OS has a good point as well.
