US Supreme Court to revisit gun control
A legal fight over a New York City handgun ordinance that could give the US Supreme Court's conservative majority a chance to expand gun rights went before the nine justices yesterday in one of the most closely watched cases of their current term. The court is scheduled to hear arguments starting at 10:00 am in a legal challenge backed by the influential National Rifle Association gun rights lobby group to a regulation that had prevented licensed owners from taking their handguns outside the confines of the most-populous US city. It is the first major gun case to come before the Supreme Court since 2010.
