United States Fourth Circuit

District court's injunction permanently enjoining enforcement of Maryland statute to the extent that it conditions eligibility for a permit to carry, wear, or transport a handgun in public on having "good and substantial reason" to do so, is reversed, where the good-and-substantial reason requirement passes constitutional muster under the applicable standard, intermediate scrutiny, because the requirement is reasonably adapted to the substantial governmental interest.
