The Colorado Court of Appeals yesterday ruled in favor of students seeking the right to carry concealed weapons on campus.
The appeals court reversed an earlier ruling by El Paso County District Judge David Miller who dismissed a lawsuit filed in 2008 by Students for Concealed Carry on Campus, seek seeking to overturn the University of Colorado’s gun ban.
The unanimous ruling comes as a huge break for gun rights advocates who oppose campus gun bans. The case will now head back to district court.
University of Colorado officials immediately raised concerns over undermining their jurisdiction over campus policies. But attorney Jim Manley, tadalafil who is representing Students for Concealed Carry on Campus in its lawsuit, pill called the ruling a “victory.”
“This decision is a victory for individual freedom and a victory for the rule of law,” he said in a statement. “The court vindicated the right to licensed concealed carry on campus and the Constitutional protection for the right to keep and bear arms.”-[source]
