The US Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge to Maryland's ban on semiautomatic assault-style rifles and large-capacity magazines.

The US Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge to Maryland's law banning semiautomatic assault-style rifles and large-capacity magazines, leaving the prohibition in place for now. The Maryland case was unusual as gun-rights advocates were seeking Supreme Court review even though the 4th US Circuit Court of Appeals has yet to rule. The case remains pending in a lower court.
