Federal judge's hearing on whether to dismiss lawsuit by pistol-packing soccer mom is delayed

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — There's an unexpected delay in a hearing on a federal lawsuit filed by a Pennsylvania woman who insisted on openly wearing her holstered pistol to her daughter's soccer games.

Officials at U.S. District Court in Harrisburg said that a Friday hearing on a motion to dismiss the lawsuit was canceled after a lawyer in the case was in a traffic accident.

No new date was immediately scheduled to hear the dismissal motion by Lebanon County Sheriff Michael DeLeo on the lawsuit by Melanie Hain.

DeLeo revoked Hain's concealed-weapons permit last year after other parents at the soccer games complained. A judge later reinstated her permit, but Hain sued.

The Lebanon resident argued that the sheriff violated her Second Amendment rights and maliciously prosecuted her when he took away the permit."

I posted this information (not the actual article) in the motion to dismiss update. Didn't want to start new threads about it. Maybe a mod could merge so we can keep all the information together? :)

Love writing. Words mean things and can convey a prejudice, that may or may not be intended, but reveal much about the author.
