Gun Makers’ Appeal Denied in New York Liability Law Case

A federal appeals court supports a New York law that allows victims of gun violence to sue firearm manufacturers, potentially holding them accountable for mass shootings. The U.S. 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the law does not impose an undue burden on firearm commerce or conflict with federal regulations, stating it is designed to address instances where manufacturers “knowingly or recklessly” endanger public safety.

This landmark ruling is viewed as a significant victory for anti-violence advocates and sets a precedent that could influence similar legal challenges nationwide. New York Attorney General Letitia James calls it a “massive victory for public safety,” while the National Shooting Sports Foundation, which challenged the law, argues it violates federal protections established in 2005 to shield gun manufacturers from lawsuits.
