To overturn, does the USSC have to accept and argue a whole new case? Isn’t there a method where they can use Heller to quickly shoot this down?

The USSC could grant cert and then remand back to the 7th Circuit to reconsider in light of the Heller decision. Because the Seventh Circuit decision is inconsistent with a recent 9th Circuit decision, it is very likely that the USSC will take the case.

So if they basically say “reconsider in light of heller”, is that like saying,,”or else eventually you’re going to be overturned”?

Thanks. I couldn't answer DesertRhino's question because I'm not a lawyer and I don't play one on TV.
