San Diego (CNS) – On Monday, the Federal Court of Appeals panel set aside the San Diego federal judge’s ruling indefinitely, which overturned California’s three-year-old assault weapons ban.
The order of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel was in response to challenges to the state’s ruling earlier this month.
“This puts our offensive weapons law into effect, while the appeal process continues,” State Attorney General Rob Bonta wrote in response to the action on his Twitter account. “We will not stop defending these life-saving laws.”
