Yesterday, the US Circuit Court of Appeals for DC vacated a district court decision that had previously enjoined a DC gun control measure. The DC ordinance essentially only allowed residents to register a handgun “for protection within the home.” While the district court struck down the ordinance as violative of the 2nd Amendment, the Court of Appeals vacated the district court’s decision on the grounds that the lower court judge, who was sitting by special appointment, acted outside the power of his appointment.
