Calif. Agencies Told to End ‘Good Cause’ Requirement for Concealed Weapons Permit

Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta has advised California law enforcement agencies that the “good cause” requirement for issuing a concealed weapons permit is likely unconstitutional and should no longer be used.

 

The advice came in a legal alert on Friday to “all California district attorneys, police chiefs, sheriffs, county counsels and city attorneys” and follows a U.S. Supreme Court decision on Thursday overturning New York State’s “proper cause” requirement.

 

“It is the Attorney General’s view that the court’s decision renders California’s good

cause standard to secure a permit to carry a concealed weapon in most public places

unconstitutional,” wrote Bonta. “Permitting agencies may no longer require a demonstration of good cause.”
