This entry details the legal challenge in Schoenthal v. Raoul concerning Illinois's ban on firearms on public transportation. It highlights the state's appeal, the judge's strong reaction to the state's motion to stay, and the potential sanctions under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 for attorneys making unsubstantiated claims, particularly referencing a recent CTA shooting.
This video provides a critical legal update from William Kirk of Washington Gun Law regarding the ATF's attempts to reclassify forced reset triggers (FRTs) and wide open triggers (WOTs) as machine guns. The court in 'National Association for Gun Rights v. Garland' denied the government's motion to stay a preliminary injunction against the ATF's rule, effectively halting Operation Reticent Recall. The ruling emphasizes that the statutory definition of a machine gun does not hinge on rate of fire but on specific functional criteria, and that FRTs/WOTs do not meet this definition. Individuals contacted by the ATF are advised to seek local legal counsel.
