NOTE: Before posting some BSasking how this applies to OC, read the article and think about what has happened with regards to preemption and then post.

A man tried to bring two pistols into the Oakland County Circuit Courthouse on Thursday morning, but he was stopped by sheriff's deputies at the security checkpoint.
The man, whose name was not immediately available, is being charged with contempt of court despite having a concealed weapons permit. The court has an administrative order banning non-police officers from bringing weapons into the buildings.
Oakland County Sheriff's deputies discovered the pistols in a case the man was carrying at 8:45 a.m. during the routine process of passing through the courthouse security checkpoint. The weapons were reportedly loaded.
The man said he was at the court to accompany someone who was scheduled to appear before a judge. The man said he was a physician from Taylor.
He was in police custody and brought before a judge, who issued a bond and set a contempt of court hearing for Wednesday. It is unclear if he immediately posted bond.

In regards to the Michigan Preemption Law of 1990 (MCL 123.1102) and the on going discussions of preemption, I thought this article bared repeating. Does the Administrative Order trump preemption? Remember, he was not in possession of the pistols in a courtroom or chambers.
Thoughts?
