The Montana Supreme Court on Tuesday reversed a Missoula judge's decision upholding the city of Missoula's gun ordinance, which would have required background checks on all transfer of firearms, including gun show purchases.
The high court ruled 5-0 in favor of Montana Attorney General Tim Fox, who voided in 2017 the Missoula City Council's ordinance adopted the year earlier, arguing the council did not have the authority to infringe on gun ownership rights in the state and U.S. constitutions.
Missoula City Council President Bryan Von Lossberg told the Missoulian on Tuesday he was "deeply saddened" by the ruling. https://www.fairfieldsuntimes.com/news/state/supreme-court-reverses-decision-on-missoula-gun-ordinance/article_898358ad-ab69-55f0-bf41-c0dfe1fc2f3c.html |
