Johnathan Allen Green v. United States

IFP petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 24-2921 · judgment February 24, 2026


Pending

Questions presented

  1. Whether courts may categorically reject Second Amendment as-applied challenges to 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) based solely on felony status, or whether New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass'n v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1 (2022), and United States v. Rahimi, 602 U.S. 680 (2024) require an individualized historical inquiry into whether the petitioner may be permanently disarmed.

  2. Whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1)’s commerce element is satisfied by the mere historical fact that a firearm or ammunition once crossed state lines, or whether the statute and the Commerce Clause require a meaningful, contemporary connection between the defendant’s possession and interstate commerce.
