Protection Of Lawful Commerce In Arms Act Cited





Citing the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act that blocks unwarranted lawsuits against the firearms industry, judges in Washington, D.C., and California have dismissed two more junk lawsuits. Earlier today, Washington, D.C., Superior Court Judge Brook Hedge threw out a lawsuit filed in 2000 against 25 firearms manufacturers, including Beretta U.S.A., Smith & Wesson, Ruger, Colt and Glock. Judge Hedge ruled that, "Congress has made clear that manufacturers or sellers of firearms or ammunition products ... are not, and should not, be liable for the harm caused by those who criminally or unlawfully misuse firearm products..." On Friday, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Charles W. Stoll similarly ordered complete dismissal of all causes of action against defendants Beretta, Smith & Wesson, Colt and Turners Outdoor Sports, a California firearms dealer.
