CourtUnited States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit
Year1995
StatusBinding authority

Key Principle

18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1)'s requirement that the firearm have, at some time, been in interstate commerce is sufficient to establish its constitutionality under the Commerce Clause after Lopez, because the statute contains a jurisdictional element absent from § 922(q).
