FFL-NY 2025 First Annual Update Seminar
Welcome to the beginning of getting our industry back-on-track in New York. It has been three long and incredibly frustrating years of a new law we didn’t ask for or get to participate in formulating, dead-ends with the NYS Police and the “I don’t know, but I’m operator #326,” and the dreaded NYSP “checklist” without feedback or follow-up. All that is about to change as we come together as an industry to talk about what’s really going on. It has taken more than three years of work with a dozen FFL-01/02 clients in six lawsuits in federal and state courts, but we’ve arrived at a place of knowing. Now, it’s time to get that information out to you - the industry - so that we can try, together, to meet these new demands.
Seminar description. Let’s take the first step and make it a manageable one. How about a 90-minute classroom style session with 30+ minutes of Q&A. Let me run you through the NYSP and NY Attorney General enforcement plot to guide our look at the new (2022) operational and compliance mandates.
Seminar materials. Participants will receive a hand-out that you can walk back to your employees and share with your colleagues. You will have the opportunity to be the engine of changing the conversation from “What the ???” to “Here’s what’s going on.”
Essential topics:
The 30% decrease in active FFL-01/02 licenses in New York of those who held federal licenses as of July 2022.
The structure of NY GBL s.875, and the scienter of “knowing.”
The choice by the NYSP, the NY DCJS, and the NY AG not to issue regulations.
The NYSP on-site dealer visits and their “checklist” prop to act out the script.
The NY Attorney General extra-judicial subpoenas against three FFLs in North Country.
The NY Attorney General “Press Release” and civil case against one of those dealers, and his lawsuit back sounding in libel per se, Second Amendment infringements, First Amendment Free Speech Clause infringements, and Due Process Clause infringements - and how both of these actions flushed out and disrupted what’s really going on here.
The Holy Grail of PLCAA and why Letitia James and Everytown started this industry attack in 2021 through an amendment to NY GBL section 898 (so note: not the 2022 new article at NY GBL s.875).
