Whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) is unconstitutional

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTION PRESENTED Whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) is unconstitutional on its face and as-applied because Congress lacks the power under the Commerce Clause to criminalize the possession of a firearm by a felon simply because the firearm had travelled across state lines at one time. |
