Talbot; U.S. v.

Facts

Lance James Talbot was charged with being a felon unlawfully in possession of ammunition, violating 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(1). He moved to dismiss the charge, arguing that 922(g) was unconstitutional both facially and as applied, referencing the Supreme Court case New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass'n v. Bruen. The district court denied his motion, leading Talbot to enter a conditional plea of guilty while preserving his right to appeal the dismissal.
