Ohio Court Rules Against Gun Possession Ban for Indicted Individuals; 5th Circuit Affirms Second Amendment Rights for Cannabis Consumers

An Ohio court has ruled against a categorical prohibition on gun possession for individuals under indictment, marking a significant development in Second Amendment jurisprudence. This decision aligns with recent commentary highlighting a lack of consensus among courts regarding laws that disarm felons. The Supreme Court has faced criticism for avoiding Second Amendment challenges, as noted by Adam Liptak of The New York Times, who pointed out starkly differing decisions from federal appeals courts last month that may influence future rulings. Additionally, the 5th Circuit has reaffirmed that prosecuting individuals for illegal gun possession while being a cannabis consumer violates the Second Amendment. The legal landscape continues to evolve, with the Supreme Court considering petitions related to arms bans in the near future.
