Case: Wodehouse v. MacKenzie
The Supreme Court has granted certiorari on two questions the parties have been directed to address in their briefs:
- Whether, in analyzing the scope of the Second Amendment, courts should prioritize evidence from the period immediately surrounding the ratification of the Second Amendment or the period immediately surrounding the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment.
- In analyzing the government’s proposed justification for a law regulating arms-bearing conduct, should the court place more emphasis on the firearms regulations that existed at the time of the Second Amendment’s ratification in 1791 or the Fourteenth Amendment’s in 1868?
Judges
- Honorable Ray Lohier, United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
