SUMMARY: A federal law that prohibits unlawful drug users from possessing firearms has been voided by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit, following the case of Mississippi man, Patrick Daniels. Daniels was arrested in 2022 for possessing marijuana and firearms during a traffic stop, but his conviction was thrown out by the court. The court found that the law was unconstitutional as it applied to Daniels because it does not distinguish between someone who is intoxicated and someone who is sober but in possession of drug paraphernalia. This decision is seen as a victory for gun rights activists.
