"...New York City resident named Joseph Srour had filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the city’s “good moral character” clause, which was invoked in denying him a premises permit for both handguns and long guns, despite the fact that he was legally eligible under federal law to purchase firearms.
U.S. District Judge John Cronan [appointed by Trump] agreed with Srour and his attorney Amy Bellatoni that the city’s “good moral character clause” is “inconsistent with the nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation” and struck down the rule in question, though he did stay his decision for a couple of days to give New York City time to appeal.
In his opinion, [Federal Judge] Cronan took city officials to task for the “broad and unrestrained discretionary standards” imposed on every applicant, which he found to be unconstitutional on their face."
