On Wednesday, Federal Court District Judge Jack Weinstein ruled that out-of-state gun dealers, including those from Georgia, were subject to the jurisdiction of New York courts because of their knowing conduct in "funneling into New York large quantities of handguns used by local criminals to terrorize significant portions of the city's population."
New York City has sued more than 25 out-of-state gun dealers and shops seeking damages, compensation, and court-ordered supervision and extra training for the dealers.
Update 8/17: News coverage is available from the Marietta Daily Journal, Creative Loafing, and the "local newspaper."
