First & Fourteenth PLLC Filed Suit in Federal Court Against Colorado House Bill 26-1126

First & Fourteenth PLLC filed suit in federal court against Colorado House Bill 26-1126—a law that authorizes any “peace officer” in the state to demand inspection of a licensed firearms dealer’s purchase records without a warrant, without probable cause, without notice, and without stating a reason.

The plaintiffs fought this bill at every stage of the legislative process, testified against it, and warned the Governor that the law was unconstitutional under established U.S. Supreme Court and circuit precedent. He signed it anyway. The complaint alleges violations of both the Fourth Amendment and article II, section 7 of the Colorado Constitution, challenging a warrantless-inspection scheme with no limits on timing, frequency, scope, or which officers may demand access to the private records of law-abiding gun owners

First & Fourteenth attorneys Julian Ellis, Michael Francisco, and Rob Bucknam are proud to represent with Centennial Gun Club, Salida Gunshop, The Leadville Armory, the Colorado State Shooting Association, and the Colorado Federal Firearms Licensee Association in defense of the constitutional rights of Colorado’s lawful firearms dealers and owners.
