The Supreme Court denied emergency review for a case challenging New York City's rifle and shotgun permit requirements. The Second Circuit subsequently dismissed the case as moot, ruling that the plaintiff had received the requested relief. The plaintiff argues the case is not moot, as the permit renewal is not automatic and the city could revoke it, and that the true relief sought was an injunction against the law itself, not just a permit.

The Supreme Court denied review of a challenge to New York City's discretionary rifle and shotgun permit requirements. The case, Shraer v. City of New York, now returns to the Second Circuit. New York City argues the case is moot due to changes in law post-Bruen and the plaintiff obtaining a permit under the new scheme, while the pro-2A side contests this, arguing for a facial challenge to the permit process's constitutionality.

The Supreme Court denied an emergency order seeking to block New York's rifle and shotgun permit requirements in the SRAER v. City of New York case. This decision allows New York's discretionary 'may issue' permit scheme, which requires applicants to prove 'good moral character,' to remain in effect while the case proceeds through the Second Circuit. The denial does not signify a final ruling on the merits of the case, which challenges the permit scheme's constitutionality in light of the Bruin decision.
