Win for Retired LEOs in NJ

Retired law enforcement, who reside in NJ, got a huge win on February 14, 2024, when the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit District of NJ AFFIRMED a prior order entered by the District Court on June 21, 2022. That prior order held that retired law enforcement officers who live in NJ and qualify under LEOSA (Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act), may carry under LEOSA and are not required to obtain the NJ RPO (Retired Police Officer Permit to Carry). In addition, qualified retired law enforcement officers can also carry hollow point ammunition. The State of NJ appealed this prior decision and on February 14, 2024, the initial ruling was AFFIRMED and will stand. See our video here.
