GUNS IN AMERICA: GORSUCH AND OTHER SUPREME COURT JUSTICES TO CONSIDER GUN CASE THAT COULD EXPAND 2ND AMENDMENT
The U.S. Supreme Court, including the newly confirmed conservative Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch, will soon conference to hear arguments in a gun-rights case from California that has the potential to expand the Second Amendment.

In Peruta v. California, the justices would decide whether the Second Amendment entitles law-abiding citizens to carry handguns outside of the home for self-defense, including concealed carry when open carry is prohibited by state law.


Anyone know when orals are scheduled? Or if they've been scheduled?

Appears petition for cert has only been filed -- not granted. Lots of amici related to cert filed too. Conference is to discuss whether the court will hear the case or not. Conf. was rescheduled 4-12-17. Assume it will be discussed soon.
