SCOOP: 2A Organizations Slap Virginia With Complaint Alleging State Defied Court Order With Gun Law
Two Second Amendment organizations have filed a complaint against the state of Virginia, alleging it violated a court order by enforcing a universal background check law. The law was signed by Governor Abigail Spanberger and is claimed to supersede a previous injunction that deemed the background check unconstitutional. The organizations argue that this enforcement undermines the authority of the court and poses immediate harm to Virginians.
- ▪Gun Owners Foundation and the Virginia Citizens Defense League filed a contempt motion against Virginia for enforcing a blocked universal background check.
- ▪Governor Abigail Spanberger signed HB 1525 into law, which directs the Virginia State Police to enforce the law despite a permanent injunction.
- ▪The Circuit Court for the City of Lynchburg had previously declared the universal background check unconstitutional.
