A New York federal judge has temporarily halted parts of the state’s new gun law that required social media account reviews for gun owners and made it a felony crime to carry guns in several public and private places.
The law initially went into effect Sept. 1 after the state’s lawmakers passed it in an emergency session as a response to a June Supreme Courtthat invalidated New York gun laws and made it easier for citizens to carry guns in public.
Chief Judge Glenn Suddaby’s ruling will allow for the gun-rights group Gun Owners of America to proceed with a lawsuit against the state’s law. The ruling will not take place for three days, the judge said, allowing for New York to appeal to a higher court.
