Frequently Asked Questions

What was the Ninth Circuit's decision regarding California's SB2 concealed carry ban?

The Ninth Circuit ruled that bans on concealed carry in places like hospitals, churches, and medical facilities are invalid under the Second Amendment. However, they upheld bans in locations such as bars, parks, and stadiums, deeming them permissible.

How did the Ninth Circuit apply the Bruen analysis to SB2?

The Ninth Circuit used a version of the Bruen analysis, examining historical regulations and analogous precedents to determine if specific locations are considered 'sensitive' for concealed carry. This approach led to a mixed ruling on various carry restrictions.

What is the significance of the Hawaii case in relation to California's SB2?

The Ninth Circuit distinguished Hawaii's laws, which allow carry with signs or oral consent, from California's more restrictive sign-only approach. This distinction was key in upholding Hawaii's laws while striking down parts of California's SB2.

What are the next steps for the legal challenges against SB2?

Plaintiffs are seeking en banc panel review for cases like May v. Bonta and the Hawaii Wolford case. These are interlocutory appeals, and further appeals to the Supreme Court are possible, though not guaranteed.
