Friend,

Today, CGF learned that due to the COVID-19 outbreak, a planned hearing in Miller v. Becerra has been delayed.

CGF's case against the California "Assault Weapons" ban had been scheduled to be heard March 19th in federal court.

According to an order published by Judge Roger T. Benitez of the United States District Court for the Southern District of California:

"In keeping with the Covid-19 related recommendations of United States President Donald J. Trump, as well as medical experts as to social distancing, this Court hereby exercises its discretion and vacates the current motion hearing date of March 19, 2020. Notice of a new motion hearing date and time will be given at a later date."

The decision follows a string of recent court-imposed delays on a hearing in this case.

And, while disappointing, we must stress that this is NOT a delay or cancellation of the case itself, and we are not aware of any other case delays due to COVID-19.

We look forward to continue litigating this important case as soon as possible, and we will announce the new hearing date as soon as it is established by the court.

In the meantime, CGF encourages our supporters to continue backing this push to terminate California's gun ban.

Until then, we thank you for your patience and support.
