A New York law that placed barriers on carrying guns on private property has been blocked by a judge who says it violates the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment.

U.S. District Judge John Sinatra agreed to enter a preliminary injunction against a portion of the law that opened a person up to a felony charge if they carry a gun on private property unless the property owner has posted “clear and conspicuous signage” permitting firearms on the property, or has otherwise given “express consent” to do so.
