United States Second Circuit

Affirmed the denial of a motion to dismiss a criminal indictment in the case of a dishonorably discharged U.S. Marine who was convicted for possessing ammunition in violation of 18 U.S.C. section 922(g)(6). In its decision, the Second Circuit held that the Marine's Second Amendment right was not infringed by the law which prohibits dishonorably discharged service members from possessing firearms or ammunition, provisions that withstood intermediate scrutiny.
