If I'm not mistaken, Sundance was a very limited, restrictive decision that didn't directly address the constitutionally overbroad nature of 2257, instead it focused on a narrow portion of the law relating to secondary producers.

It was subsequently rendered moot by 2257A.

As I understand it, this decision is different because, if it stands, it declares *all* of 2257 unconstitutional, at least in the 6th district, because it is overbroad and does not fulfill its intended purpose (DUH!)

Now what effect this will have on FBI and Justice remains to be seen, but it sounds like we have a potential 1-2 punch in the works, because we have this decision, and the pending commentary on how the passage of 2257 violated the Federal laws requiring a study on the impact of any new law on small business.

With luck, 2257 will get struck down and a new, more sensibly crafted law can replace it. That will take probalby a year or more to go into effect, given that, as far as I know, it must first pass, then proposed regulations published, a comment period, and final regulations published.
