The Oregon Supreme Court refused to lift an injunction on Oregon Measure 114, a new, stricter gun control law. In its ruling, the court said the case is working its way through the courts, and there is no reason to interfere.
The court stressed that its decision had nothing to do with the merits of either side’s arguments. The court ruled that the case is progressing adequately, but further action could be taken later, if necessary. “. . . our only determination today is that now is not an appropriate time to exercise our authority in mandamus in connection with the trial court’s temporary and preliminary rulings,” the court’s order reads.
