FILED OPINION (RYAN D. NELSON, KENNETH K. LEE and SIDNEY H. STEIN) In conclusion, the district court erred by holding that the California laws did not burden Second Amendment rights. It properly applied intermediate scrutiny to the long gun regulation and did not abuse its discretion in finding it likely to survive. But it erred in applying intermediate scrutiny to the semiautomatic rifle ban. And even if intermediate scrutiny applied, the district court abused its discretion in finding the ban likely to survive. Finally, the district court erred in its application of the irreparable harm factor. Thus, as to the long gun regulation, the district courtâ??s order is AFFIRMED. And as to the semiautomatic centerfire rifle ban, the district courtâ??s order is REVERSED. We REMAND the case to the district court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. Judge: RDN Authoring, Judge: KKL Concurring, Judge: SHS Dissenting in part. FILED AND ENTERED JUDGMENT. [12443643] |
