A federal judge on Jan. 30 blocked additional portions of a recently enacted New Jersey gun law, just weeks after blocking other parts of the law that she said posed “considerable constitutional problems.”
The law in question, signed on Dec. 22 by the state’s Democrat Gov. Phil Murphy, makes it a third-degree felony to knowingly carry a firearm into an exhaustive list of “sensitive” places like schools, libraries, museums, places where alcohol is served, public parks, and private property unless the owner “expressly communicates permission through express consent or specific signage.”
