[FPC News] FPC Files Major Appellate Brief in Lawsuit Against New York City
<p><strong>NEW YORK </strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">(</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">July 21, 2025</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">) – Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) has commenced appellate briefing at the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Calce v. City of New York</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the organization announced today. The lawsuit, filed in 2021, directly challenges New York City’s ban on electronic arms like stun guns and tasers. But the case is not just about less-lethal arms, FPC says, because the appellate court — which covers New York, Connecticut, and Vermont — will, for the first time since the Supreme Court’s 2022 </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bruen</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;"> decision, have to address constitutional protection for ‘arms’ following a final judgment.</span></p>
