Federal judge rules against Gov. Lujan Grisham’s order banning guns in public – KOB.com

ALBUQUERQUE U.S. District Court Judge David Herrera Urias has granted a temporary restraining order Wednesday against New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham s recent order banning the lawful carry of firearms in Albuquerque and across Bernalillo County.

The ruling cited the orders direct conflict with the Second Amendment and will halt implementation of the orders pending a final hearing, which is scheduled for Oct. 3.

The restraining order only applies to Section 1 and Section 4 of the public health order.

Section 1 outlines the temporary suspension of open and concealed carry laws, and Section 4 states that No person, other than a law enforcement officer or licensed security officer, shall possess a firearm on state property, public schools, and public parks. Both sections cannot be enforced.

All other sections of the order remain in effect. Gov. Lujan Grisham s administration is expected to update the public health order with additional measures soon.
