Moser v. Nessel Challenges Michigan Pistol Purchase Permit & Registry

Summary

The lawsuit Moser v. Nessel has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan, challenging Michigan's pistol purchase permit system (License to Purchase) and state-maintained handgun registry.
