On Wednesday, an Oklahoma judge rejected a request by a state legislator to block a law abolishing the need for most of the gun owners to go through a training or background check before carrying their gun in public, as per a report.

Don Andrews, an Oklahoma County District Judge rejected a bid made by Jason Lowe, an Oklahoma City Representative to block permitless carry gun law from going into effect on Friday.

Melanie Rughani, the lawyer representing Lowe, argued that the bill actually was unconstitutional. Rughani said that the bill violated one rule in Oklahoma constitution by saying that bills could address only one topic. But, Andrews ruled out saying that the plaintiffs failed to provide a proof that the law could result in irreparable damage to them in case it were permitted from taking effect.

Lowe said that he would go ahead and appeal Andrews’ decision at Oklahoma Supreme Court.

Notably, the law, known as ‘constitutional carry,’ was signed by Governor Kevin Stitt in February. This was the first ever bill that he had signed post taking the office. It prevents the need to hold a valid license for carrying a firearm in public, either openly or concealed, for most individuals 21 or above. The law isn’t applicable for people who are convicted over certain crimes or for undocumented immigrants or to properties like bars, casinos and schools.
