Sacramento, California - California Attorney General Xavier Becerra Friday continued his defense of California’s gun safety laws by filing a motion for initial en banc review in Flanagan v. Becerra, a challenge to California’s laws that regulate who may carry a firearm in public places. The petition was filed with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in response to the Court's recent decision in Young v. State of Hawai’i. In the Young case, a three-member panel of the Court held that Hawai’i's public carry regulations, as the Court understood them, violate the Second Amendment. If allowed to stand, the decision could erroneously alter the Court's consideration of California's public carry laws and other sensible firearms laws and regulations.
