So one can only bring a case once one turns 18 (at the earliest) and they think it will get to the appeals level before that person turns 21?Plaintiff Natalia Marshall, while under the age of 21, wished to purchase a handgun from a federally licensed firearms dealer and sued to challenge the constitutionality of the federal laws and regulations which prohibited her from doing so while she was 18–20 years old. A divided panel of this court found those laws violated the text, structure, history, and tradition of the Second Amendment. After the opinion issued but before the mandate, Marshall turned 21. And that made her claims moot. Despite efforts to add parties and reframe her claimed injuries, it is too late to revive this case. So it must be dismissed as moot.
The Judiciary is no longer going to uphold the Constitution; finally joining the other two branches in ignoring it.

A panel for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit vacated a pro-gun July ruling, describing the earlier decision as "moot."
