From Reuters (bolding by me):

"The law also made it a crime to carry a firearm in various "sensitive" locations, including government buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, theaters, bars, polling places and Manhattan's Times Square.

The six plaintiffs sued in federal court challenging various aspects of the 2022 law.
U.S. Judge Glenn Suddaby in Syracuse, New York, blocked much of the law in 2022. The Manhattan-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals largely reversed Suddaby's decision in 2024."
_______________

One of the things the plaintiffs also asked for was for SCOTUS to rule that federal
courts arguments be limited to historical sources in 1791 (2nd amendment) and not later.

Note: The original judge was appointed to the federal bench in 2007 by Bush 43. Interestingly, he opted for 'senior status' in 2024, which resulted in Joe B. getting another federal seat to fill.
