California City Seizes Woman's Guns Over Husband's Mental Health

The city of San Jose seized Lori Rodriguez’s guns after her husband was forced to undergo a psychiatric exam, but now she wants them back contending that the seizure violates her Second Amendment rights.
...
Rodriguez lost the weapons after her husband was locked up in a hospital for a 72-hour psychiatric evaluation.
That hospital stay bars him legally from having access to weapons.
“That doesn’t mean she gives up her right to have a gun, as long as she follows California’s law that is to use a gun safe,” Rodriguez lawyer Don Kilmer said.
City Attorney Rick Doyle told the station the issue is public safety.
“Are we acting with an abundance of caution? Yeah,” Doyle said. “We’re concerned about someone having access to firearms that shouldn’t.”
Doyle said storing the guns in a locked safe doesn’t prevent Mr. Rodriguez from gaining access.
San Jose prevailed when Rodriguez challenged the seizure in state court.
“We don’t want to turn the guns over and we don’t have to turn the guns over. The courts have agreed with us,” Doyle told the station.
The state appellate decision and federal appeal are attached.

Wasn't there a case where a family court judge ordered a father to remove all guns from his home or lose all visitation rights? Then it was over rulled by a higher court? Sorry I thought that was California.

"Having also determined that the order may be affirmed under section 8102 because the order is supported by substantial evidence that return of the confiscated firearms to the Rodriguez home would be likely to result in endangering Edward or others, we will affirm the order."

 

But it's okay for the wife to just go out and buy more guns on her own. Guess where she will put them? In the freaking safe!

 

California suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.
