Jason Eugene Ellett v. United States

Question 1: Whether the Second Amendment permits an as-applied challenge to the constitutionality of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) when that challenge is premised on the non-violent and non-dangerous nature of the defendant’s prior convictions. Question 2: If as-applied challenges can succeed, what is the standard by which courts should evaluate a person’s prior convictions to determine if those convictions allow Congress to disarm that person under penalty of imprisonment?
