Nation Awaits Major 2nd Amendment Decision
June 23, 2008
Original KDKA article: Nation Awaits Major 2nd Amendment Decision
The Supreme Court begins what almost certainly is its final week of work before its summer break with 10 cases left to decide. Among the big issues are gun rights and the death penalty for rape of a child.
The court is meeting Monday morning to issue opinions and announce whether it has accepted any new cases to argue during the next term.
The justices still have not handed down decisions in a landmark Second Amendment case on the meaning of the right to keep and bear arms. Also awaiting a decision is a challenge to a Louisiana law that allows people convicted of raping children to be given the death penalty.
