Appeals Court to Decide on Noncitizens' Second Amendment Rights Amid SCOTUS Inaction on Snope and Ocean State Tactical Cases
An appeals court is set to determine whether noncitizens possess Second Amendment rights, a question that has garnered attention amid ongoing discussions about gun rights and immigration. The Supreme Court has not made any rulings regarding the Snope assault weapons ban or the Ocean State Tactical magazine ban, indicating that these cases will not be addressed in the 2024-25 term. Advocates for gun rights are urging the Supreme Court to take up these cases for arguments in the fall of 2025. The absence of movement on these issues has led to speculation about potential dissent from the court regarding the denial of certiorari for these cases.
