It has come to light that Hunter’s lawyer recently vowed to appeal his conviction on gun charges. However, the Supreme Court on Tuesday told another defendant challenging the same law as unconstitutional to have his case reviewed again by an appeals court.
Patrick Darnell Daniels Jr.’s case is part of a flood of Second Amendment challenges after a landmark Supreme Court decision in 2022. Daniels has challenged a federal law that bans gun possession for anyone who “is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance.”
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals had overturned his conviction and the Justice Department urged the Supreme Court to resolve the dispute. The justices informed him to return to that court for a fresh decision based on a recent high court ruling that upheld disarming domestic abusers.
It has been noted that Hunter Biden, the president’s son, was convicted on June 11 under the same law for lying on a federal screening form and to a gun dealer about his drug use while buying a revolver in October 2018. His sentencing hasn’t been scheduled. However, his lawyer, Abbe Lowell, has vowed to appeal.
The uncertainty among federal courts about which gun laws are constitutional arose after the Supreme Court in 2022 struck down a New York law requiring state residents to have “proper cause” to carry a handgun. In New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v Bruen, the court said gun prohibitions must be grounded in history “consistent with our tradition of gun regulation.”
