The Supreme Court has granted emergency review in Wolford v. Lopez, a case challenging Hawaii's law that presumptively prohibits concealed carry on private property open to the public unless explicitly permitted. This case directly addresses state defiance of the Bruin ruling and could determine the future of gun carry rights nationwide, potentially impacting laws in New York, California, and New Jersey.
The Supreme Court's emergency review of Wolford v. Lopez addresses state defiance of the Bruin ruling, specifically Hawaii's law that presumptively prohibits concealed carry on private property open to the public unless explicitly permitted. This case could determine the future of gun carry rights nationwide, potentially impacting laws in multiple states.
The Duncan v. Bonta case, challenging California's magazine ban, is under Supreme Court consideration. A key argument for review, based on the US v. Benson ruling striking down a similar DC ban, has been undercut by the DC Court of Appeals granting an en banc rehearing in Benson. This shifts the legal landscape, potentially influencing the Supreme Court's decision to grant or deny certiorari for Duncan.
