A Second Amendment Case is Moving Toward the U.S. Supreme Court
| Silveira v. Lockyer is a current lawsuit that challenges the California semi-auto rifle ban on the basis of Second Amendment protection of our individual right to keep and bear arms. The plaintiffs in the case are represented by California attorney Gary Gorski. The U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has already ruled (Hickman) that Americans have no individual right to own and carry guns. A three-judge panel upheld that ruling in Silveira v. Lockyer. Gorski has petitioned for a hearing by the full court. Barring a self-reversal by the full Ninth Circuit, this case WILL be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. |
