USA -(Ammoland.com)- Thursday, December 1, California’s Fifth Appellate District Court of Appeal ruled that a case challenging the state’s 2007 microstamping law could return to the trial court for further action.

The suit was brought by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) with assistance from NRA’s counsel in California.

The appellate court overturned a lower court decision that had dismissed NSSF’s challenge to California’s arbitrary and irrational requirement that all new semi-automatic handguns be equipped with so-called “microstamping” technology.

The appellate court sent the case back to the lower court to reconsider the microstamping challenge. While this is not the end of the case, the appellate court’s revival of the case and ruling that the Attorney General’s interpretation of the law is wrong helps the plaintiffs’ case going forward.
