(The Center Square) – A three judge panel in a federal appeals took the challenge to Illinois’ gun and magazine ban under advisement after hearing arguments Monday. Southern District of Illinois Judge Stephen McGlynn found the law unconstitutional last year on final judgement. Monday, the Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals heard oral arguments. “Isn’t that an uphill battle for the state to overcome those findings?”Brennan sided with plaintiffs when the case was in front of the appeals court in 2023. It’s unclear when the appeals panel would rule on the case.
