The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and several partners are pushing for a full court rehearing in their legal battle against California’s “sensitive places” law.

Lawyers representing the SAF have filed a petition for an en banc review with the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, aiming to challenge parts of a recent ruling in the case May v. Bonta.

This case brings together a wide range of gun rights organizations, including Gun Owners of America, the Liberal Gun Club, and the California Rifle & Pistol Association.

They’re also joined by several individuals, including Reno May, the case’s namesake.

The legal team handling the case includes prominent attorneys from Michel & Associates, based in Long Beach, California, as well as Donald Kilmer from Caldwell, Idaho.

Recently, a three-judge panel on the Ninth Circuit upheld parts of an injunction against California’s restrictions.

Specifically, the ruling blocked the state from enforcing bans in hospitals, public transit, places of worship, and similar areas.

However, it wasn’t a complete victory, as the panel narrowed the broader injunction issued earlier by a district court.

SAF founder Alan Gottlieb commented on the petition.

“As we note in our petition,” said Gottlieb, “the Ninth Circuit Court has never hesitated to grant en banc review in order to uphold a gun control law, so it should grant review in this case to uphold the general right to public carry as affirmed by the Supreme Court in the Bruen decision.”

SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut also chimed in.

“Our initial victory was upheld in part by the Ninth Circuit panel,” said Kraut. “We are now asking the court to fix the panel’s errors as to the provisions of the law which were upheld by reversing the district court’s injunction.”
