Jeff Silvester v. Kamala Harris
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
1ConcurrenceThomas, Chief Judge
I agree entirely with, and concur in, the majority opinion. I write separately, however, because the challenge to California’s tern-day waiting period can be resolved at step one of our Second Amendment jurisprudence. As a longstanding qualification on the commercial sale of arms under District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 128 S.Ct. 2783, 171 L.Ed.2d 637 (2008), a ten-day waiting period is presumptively lawful. Therefore, it is unnecessary to proceed to the second step intermediate scrutiny examination of the law.
