SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 29 –
Jonathan
Corbett sued
to get a New
York State gun
license, after
Governor
Kathleen
Hochul
responded to
the US Supreme
Court's Bruen
decision by
imposing new
requirements,
including
disclosing all
social media
accounts and
training which
he called
excessive and
prospectively
too expensive.
He
sought a
preliminary
injunction.
On
November 29,
2022, U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York Judge
Lorna G.
Schofield held
a proceeding.
Inner City
Press covered
it.
After
questioning
the parties -
and the
defendants
citing a 1780
New York law
about militias
- Judge
Schofield
denied any
preliminary
injunction,
finding no
likelihood of
success on the
merits had
been
shown.
Corbett,
who says his
sealed gun
permit
application
has been
pending eight
months, says
he intends to
appeal the
decision, as
well as to
move to amend
his complaint.
Judge
Scholfield
suggested he
submit a
pre-motion
letter.
The
case is
Corbett v.
Hochul,
22-cv-5867
