Supreme Court Decision Used Against CA Rifle Purchase Restriction Case!!!
The Ninth Circuit vacated its prior ruling in Jones v. Bonta, which had struck down California's ban on 18-20 year olds purchasing semi-automatic centerfire rifles. The case is remanded to the district court for rehearing in light of the Supreme Court's Bruin decision, which mandates analysis based on text informed by history and tradition, rejecting tier-based scrutiny. This decision delays the resolution of the case and potentially other Second Amendment challenges in the Ninth Circuit.
