JONES v. STATE (2022)

Court of Appeals of Indiana.

Anthony Keith JONES, Appellant-Defendant, v. STATE of Indiana, Appellee-Plaintiff

Court of Appeals Case No. 22A-CR-249

Decided: June 28, 2022

Attorney for Appellant: Michael Frischkorn, Frischkorn Law LLC, Fortville, Indiana Attorneys for Appellee: Theodore E. Rokita, Attorney General, Samuel J. Dayton, Deputy Attorney General, Indianapolis, Indiana

MEMORANDUM DECISION

[1] Anthony Keith Jones was convicted of Class A misdemeanor carrying a handgun without a license after he was found with a handgun in the parking lot of a shooting range. He appeals, noting that the carrying statute does not require individuals to be licensed when carrying a handgun “at a shooting range,” see Ind. Code § 35-47-2-1(b)(5)(A), and arguing that this exception includes a range's parking lot. The State agrees and asks us to reverse Jones's conviction. We accept the State's concession and reverse.

[2] Reversed.

Vaidik, Judge.

Crone, J., and Altice, J., concur.
