Judge blocks portions of New York’s gun restrictions – By Simon Druker (UPI) / Oct 6, 2022
Oct. 6 (UPI) — New York’s newest gun laws likely violate the Second Amendment, a U.S. District Court Judge said on Thursday, while temporarily halting some of the new legislation.
Judge Glen Suddaby said parts of the licensing requirements signed into law by Gov. Kathy Hochul, D-N.Y., in the summer, go too far.
Suddaby’s 53-page ruling also touches on weapons bans in specific locations like Times Square, which could be unconstitutional. The case was filed by Gun Owners of America against New York State.
The judge ruled New York lawmakers had only partially justified the recent rules in the Concealed Carry Improvement Act.
