New York gun law provisions that bar the carrying of guns on private property open to the public and mandate that permit applicants disclose their social media accounts are unconstitutional, a federal appeals court ruled on Oct. 24.
The three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit declined to block other parts of the statute.
