(Washington, DC) — The U.S. Supreme Court is refusing to review a part of Maryland’s gun control laws. By declining the case, the high court justices are letting stand a state law that requires residents to show a “good and substantial reason” to get a permit to carry a handgun in public. In March, a federal appeals court reversed a lower court’s ruling against the requirement. The Second Amendment Foundation challenged the law on behalf of a Baltimore County man who was unable to get a handgun permit renewal.
