The Supreme Court is considering an emergency intervention in the Wolford v. Lopez case concerning Hawaii's concealed carry ban. The DOJ and 25 states support the challenge, arguing that lower courts are defying the Bruin decision by upholding broad public carry bans. The case hinges on whether Hawaii's historical restrictions justify its current laws, with the DOJ pushing for immediate review.
The Ninth Circuit has halted California's SB2 'sensitive places' law, blocking public carry bans previously enjoined by a district court. This ruling, stemming from the *Carell v. Bonta* case, denies California's motion for a stay pending appeal. The decision impacts a wide range of public locations and has broader implications for states responding to the Bruen decision, with a full hearing scheduled for April. This is a significant win for gun rights organizations like FPC and GOA.
A federal judge in Maryland has issued a preliminary injunction against key provisions of the state's "sensitive places" law. This ruling, stemming from a case brought by the Firearms Policy Coalition, halts enforcement of bans on firearm carry in locations selling alcohol, private property without owner consent, and within 1,000 feet of public demonstrations. The judge cited historical precedent and the Bruen decision, distinguishing the new law from previous restrictions that targeted only intoxicated individuals.
