The bench trial for the challenge to Illinois’ gun and magazine ban continues in East St. Louis.

Illinois enacted a ban on semi-automatic firearms and magazines over certain capacities in January 2023. Lawsuits challenging the law in federal court went all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court on preliminary grounds. Justices denied the request, saying they wanted a full case on final judgment. Monday began the trial to get to final judgment in the courtroom of federal Judge Stephen McGlynn. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
