Federal Appeals Court Upholds New York Gun Law on Thursday, Allows Bans in Sensitive Locations
Oct 24, 2024, 05:15 PM
A federal appeals court has upheld significant portions of New York's expansive gun law, allowing the state to enforce bans on carrying firearms in 'sensitive locations' such as schools, parks, theaters, and bars. The ruling, issued by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on Thursday, was detailed in a 246-page decision signed by all three judges on the panel. However, the court struck down restrictions in private spaces open to the public. The decision follows a directive from the Supreme Court to re-evaluate the law, and the ruling is expected to face continued legal challenges, including in the case of Antonyuk v. Nigreli.
