FINALLY! California Sued For Denying CCW Permits In Violation of Bruen!

This video discusses the legal brief filed on behalf of Eva Marie Gardner in a significant Second Amendment case before the US Supreme Court. The case concerns the constitutional right to carry a firearm across state lines, particularly when one has a valid concealed carry permit from their home state. The brief argues that Maryland's conviction of Ms. Gardner for carrying a firearm while traveling through the state, despite having a Virginia CCW permit, is unconstitutional, especially given Maryland's previous 'may issue' licensing regime that was deemed unconstitutional in the Bruin decision.

This video explains the legal maneuver by California to dissolve the injunction in Hoffman v. Bonta, which had allowed non-residents to apply for CCW permits. By passing AB 1078, California changed the underlying law, enabling them to argue for the injunction's dissolution under Rule 60(b)(5) due to changed circumstances. While the injunction was dissolved procedurally, the court did not rule on the constitutionality of California's new non-resident application process, setting the stage for future legal challenges.

The Supreme Court has unanimously denied emergency review for concealed carry bans, impacting cases like Antonyuk in New York and Wolfford in Hawaii. While the Antonyuk case returns to the lower court for a merits decision, the Second Circuit's precedent that Bruin applies only to exceptional cases presents an uphill battle. A potential legislative solution, the National Concealed Carry Reciprocity Bill, is moving through the House.

The Supreme Court has denied certiorari for Anton v. James, a significant Second Amendment case concerning New York's concealed carry laws. While disappointing, the denial is not entirely surprising as the Court typically avoids interlocutory cases. This means the legal battle will continue in lower courts, with the potential to return to the Supreme Court after a final ruling. The case challenges New York's attempt to circumvent the Bruin decision by replacing 'good cause' with 'good moral character' for permit applications.
