WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court on April 29 denied a request by New York City to indefinitely suspend a pending constitutional challenge to its uniquely restrictive gun laws.
In the case known as New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. City of New York, the city claimed it needed the appeal to be placed on hold indefinitely because it was in the process of amending its peculiarly onerous law that prevents lawful gun permit holders from transporting their unloaded, locked-up weapons outside city limits.
