The case was: Gonzalez v. Omaha. Case 8:2011cv00335, filed 09-27-2011.

Mr. Gonzalez was a legal resident alien who was denied a firearms registration permit because he was not a U.S. citizen. A member of both the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association and the SAF, Mr. Gonzalez sued the city with the NFOA and SAF as plaintiffs.

In late 2011, the Federal Judge granted a preliminary injunction against the City of Omaha, the city changed its ordinance and mooted the case.

Coming on the heels fo the payout by Chicago, the SAF was presented a check for $12K from the City. Reported here by Seattle Gun Rights Examiner, David Workman.

This was a case simialr to a WA State case from 2 years ago and a SD federal case, last year. We have a similar MA case (Fletcher et al v. Haas #41 in the lineup) currently waiting for rulings on the plaintiffs MSJ and the defendants MTD's.
