Certiorari denied · January 20, 2026
Questions presented
-
Whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), which prohibits felons from possessing firearms or ammunition, violates the Second Amendment—either on its face or as applied to the petitioner, who has no violent felony conviction.
-
Whether § 922(g)(1), which purports to make a felon’s intrastate possession of firearms and ammunition a federal crime solely because those items crossed state lines at some point, exceeds Congress’s Commerce Clause authority.
