The Wisconsin Supreme Court has ruled against a man who argued his Second Amendment rights outweighed a state law barring people from using a gun while intoxicated.
The court upheld Mitchell Christen’s conviction Tuesday.
His attorney had argued the Wisconsin law was unconstitutional as it was applied to his case.
On a six-to-one vote, the state’s high court upheld a state appeals court ruling rejecting his constitutional claim.
Justice Rebecca Bradley was the lone vote.
She said the courts’ rulings erode fundamental freedom.
