In its third opinion in the same case, a majority of a three-judge panel ruled Dec. 14 that a state law prohibiting doctors from asking patients about gun ownership is valid.
In earlier rulings, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit held that the Florida Firearm Owners Privacy Act was a valid regulation of physicians' speech. It first said the law fell within the state's right to regulate licensed professionals (145 HCDR, 7/29/14). The second time the panel looked at the law, it upheld it under the First Amendment's intermediate scrutiny standard (146 HCDR, 7/30/15).
This time around, the panel applied the First Amendment's strict scrutiny standard and said the provision passed constitutional muster. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
