Dorothy McKay v. Sandra Hutchens
Opinion
MEMORANDUM *
On November 12, 2013, we vacated submission and stayed proceedings pending resolution of Peruta v. County of San Diego, No. 10-56971. We now resubmit the case and affirm the district court’s judgment.
In Peruta v. County of San Diego, 824 F.3d 919 (9th. Cir. 2016) (en banc), we held that a member of the general public does not have a right under the Second Amendment to carry a concealed firearm in public, and that a state may impose any restriction, including a showing of good cause, on concealed carry. Id. at 939. The San Diego and Yolo County Sheriffs Department policies interpreting the California statutory good cause requirement therefore survived a Second Amendment challenge. Id. For the same reasons, the Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department’s policy regarding good cause to issue a concealed carry license does not violate the Second Amendment, and we affirm the district court’s order denying a preliminary injunction to prohibit enforcement of the policy.
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
