Frequently Asked Questions

Why has the LAPD stopped enforcing California's high-capacity magazine ban?

The LAPD has suspended enforcement of the ban on magazines holding more than 10 rounds due to recent US Supreme Court decisions, specifically the vacating of the *Duncan v. Bonta* ruling and its remand for reconsideration in light of *NYSRPA v. Bruen*. This legal shift has created uncertainty around the ban's constitutionality.

What is California Penal Code section 32310(c) & (d)?

California Penal Code section 32310(c) and (d) prohibits the possession of firearm magazines that are capable of holding more than 10 rounds. Enforcement of this specific code section has been suspended by the LAPD.

What is the significance of the *NYSRPA v. Bruen* Supreme Court decision?

The *NYSRPA v. Bruen* decision established a new standard for Second Amendment cases, requiring that firearm regulations be consistent with the nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation. This ruling has had a significant impact on subsequent legal challenges to gun control laws nationwide.

What does it mean for a court ruling to be 'vacated' and 'remanded'?

When a higher court 'vacates' a lower court's ruling, it cancels that decision. 'Remanded' means the case is sent back to the lower court for further proceedings or reconsideration based on the higher court's instructions or new legal standards.
