Md. gun laws restricting concealed carry in restaurants, private buildings, ruled unconstitutional

A federal judge ruled Friday that several of Maryland’s gun carry laws are unconstitutional. They include provisions of where exactly permitted citizens can lawfully carry. The lawsuit, Novotny v. Moore, was brought by several concealed carry permit holders and gun rights groups. It sued Gov. Wes Moore and other Maryland officials over specific restrictions on where citizens could legally carry.
