Inc. v. Cuomo
804 F.3d 242 (2d Cir. 2015)
Key Principle
New York's and Connecticut's post-Sandy Hook bans on semiautomatic 'assault weapons' and large-capacity magazines burden the Second Amendment but survive intermediate scrutiny as substantially related to the important public-safety interest in reducing gun violence, though a discrete load-limit provision and a ban on one non-semiautomatic rifle fail.
