Top NY court lifts handgun permit residency limit - Times Union
Mr. Osterwiel has won in the NY Court of Appeals, the NYS equivalent of a Supreme Court.
The Court took a certified question from the 2nd Circuit back in January of 2013. While the Court ruled that part-time residents could not be denied their right to arms as a class, it stopped short of declaring the law, as previously interpreted, unconstitutional on 2A grounds.
The case will now go back to the CA2 to decide how this ruling impacts the federal case.
