There’s been another temporary restraining order issued in the continuing legal battle over Illinois’s assault weapons ban.
A Macon County judge has granted that order, which only affects the plaintiffs in a lawsuit brought by state Representative Dan Caulkins and others.
It’s at least the third TRO that’s been issued against the new state law, but each order only affects those directly involved in those cases.
Caulkins had asked for a statewide restraining order, but the judge declined, resulting in what Caulkins calls a “patchwork” of rulings that he says is unfair to other gun owners around the state.
