A US appeals court ruled that a federal law barring convicted felons from owning firearms is constitutional when their offenses involved violence or threats indicating a risk of gun misuse. The Philadelphia-based 3rd US Circuit Court of Appeals, with a conservative majority, upheld the ban for a man convicted of carjacking but not for a DUI offender. This follows the 2022 Supreme Court ruling expanding gun rights.
