SecondAmendment FourthAmendment Privacy
Whether an individual's probation or supervised release status categorically strips them of Second Amendment protection under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), or whether courts must apply Bruen's historical analysis to determine if the specific predicate offense historically justified disarmament
1. Whether an individual ’s probation or supervised release status categorically strips them of Second Amendment protection under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), or whether courts must apply Bruen’s historical analysis to determine if the specific predicate offense historically justified disarmament, as required by the Fifth Circuit ’s decision in United States v. Diaz ? 2. Is the lifetime ban on possession of firearms by all felons, codified at 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), plainly unconstitutional on its face under Bruen because it is permanent and applies to all persons convicted of felonies?
