As previously reported, October 1, 2019 was a date of several possible implications concerning the Second Amendment. The Supreme Court of the United States had on their conference calendar Cheeseman v Polillo for granting or denying certiorari. This is one of the many cases currently challenging draconian firearm laws in the country.
All eyes have been looking towards NYSRPA v NYC a case concerning the prohibition of traveling outside of the boroughs of New York with a lawfully owned handgun. The case is scheduled for arguments on December 2nd. On October 7th SCOTUS orders noted that NYSRPA v NYC is not mooted at this time and on the date of arguments, NYC can make their mootness claim. The case is being heard. It is apparent that NYC does not want this case to be heard, nor does the rest of the anti-gun community. Any moves loosening the transportation restrictions were simply hail Marys to have the case dismissed rather than an acknowledgement of governmental overreach. This NYC case can have wide implications, damaging statutes in other restrictive jurisdictions such as New Jersey, where there are strict laws on the transportation of firearms outside of the home. If broadly decided, this case can set a precedent that can eviscerate several possession related statutes throughout the country.
Should NYSRPA v NYC become mooted during/after arguments, the court still has in waiting cases specifically targeting concealed carry and other firearm related claims. Rogers v Grewal is once such carry case, out of New Jersey, and has been through conference with no action or orders posted concerning its fate.
Cheeseman v Polillo is one cog in this wheel fighting against draconian laws. Glassboro, NJ resident Mark Cheeseman set out on two different occasions to obtain a New Jersey Concealed Carry Permit and in both instances he was denied due to not having a “justifiable need.”
In the Heller decision, it is explicitly noted by the court that a government cannot make arbitrary decisions concerning constitutional rights. In the case of carrying firearms, it is also pointed out by Cheeseman’s suit:
