A federal appeals court has ruled that California can continue to require background checks of ammunition buyers as a challenge to the voter-approved rule makes its way through the justice system.
In a preliminary ruling Thursday, San Diego-based U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez sided with plaintiffs, including the California Rifle and Pistol Association and six-time Olympic medalist skeet shooter Kim Rhode, who argued the checks violate the Second Amendment right to bear arms.
The appeals court, represented by Judges Mary H. Murguia and Mark J. Bennett, didn't address the arguments. The California Attorney General's office said in an email Saturday that"California's laws and regulations concerning ammunition transactions and background checks are in effect and will be enforced until further notice while the appellate court considers whether to stay the preliminary injunction for the duration of the appeal."
