Ninth Circuit holds Second Amendment secures a right to carry a gun
So holds today’s Peruta v. County of San Diego (9th Cir. Feb. 13, 2014) (http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2014/02/12/1056971.pdf) (2-1 vote). The court concludes that California’s broad limits on both open and concealed carry of loaded guns — with no “shall-issue” licensing regime that assures law-abiding adults of a right to get licenses, but only a “good cause” regime under which no license need be given — “impermissibly infringe[] on the Second Amendment right to bear arms in lawful self-defense.” The Ninth Circuit thus joins the Seventh Circuit, and disagrees with the Second, Third, and Fourth Circuits. (State courts are also split on the subject.)

The Ninth Circuit’s decision in Peruta v. San Diego (http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2014/02/12/1056971.pdf), released minutes ago, affirms the right of law-abiding citizens to carry handguns for lawful protection in public.

Surprisingly good holding for us, as well as a very good, comprehensive opinion.
