Federal judge denies TRO against Illinois assault weapons ban for Naperville gun store owner
CHICAGO (WLS) — A federal decide in Chicago denied a Naperville gun retailer proprietor and different plaintiffs a short lived restraining order towards the Illinois assault weapons ban.
The ruling, issued by the Seventh Circuit Courtroom, rejected the lawsuit partially on Second Modification grounds, writing, “As a result of assault weapons are significantly harmful weapons and high-capacity magazines are significantly harmful weapon equipment, their regulation accords with historical past and custom. Naperville and Illinois lawfully exercised their authority to manage their possession, switch, sale and manufacture by enacting a ban on business gross sales. That call comports with the Second Modification.”
