An Oregon state court judge placed a hold on the state's strict new voter-approved gun control measure late Tuesday, only hours after a federal court judge allowed a ban on the sale and transfer of high-capacity magazines to go into effect.
Now, Harney County Judge Robert Raschio's ruling muddies the waters on the implementation of Measure 114, which was set to go into effect Thursday. Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum vowed to appeal the matter straight to the state Supreme Court, according to a tweet posted Tuesday.
Hours before Raschio's reversal, a Portland-based federal judge handed a victory to proponents of Measure 114, which was narrowly approved by state voters last month, passing with 50.7% support. The voter-approved measure requires fingerprinting and training courses for new firearms buyers as well as a criminal background check. Additionally, it bars the sale, import, or transfer of gun magazines with more than 10 rounds unless they are owned by law enforcement or military members or were possessed before the measure's approval.
