Attorney General Bonta Joins Multistate Coalition in Support of Voting Rights for Previously Incarcerated Individuals
Posted by: News_Desk on 08/18/2022 02:12 PM
Oakland, CA... California Attorney General Rob Bonta today joined a coalition of 15 attorneys general in an amicus brief in Community Success Initiative v. Moore urging the North Carolina Supreme Court to affirm a trial court decision to restore the voting rights of previously incarcerated individuals in North Carolina. The case centers around a challenge to a North Carolina statute that was found to unlawfully infringe on the voting rights of people previously convicted of a felony who are in the process of completing the terms of their probation, parole, post release supervision, or legal financial obligations. In the friend-of-the-court brief, the coalition highlights the importance of civic engagement for strengthening previously incarcerated individuals’ ties to their communities, reducing the likelihood of recidivism, and supporting increased public safety.
Attorney General Bonta Seizes 54 Guns and Thousands of Rounds of Ammunition from Prohibited Individual

Riverside, CA... Advises Californians on steps to protect themselves and others from those no longer able to responsibly possess weapons. California Attorney General Rob Bonta today announced the seizure of dozens of guns, including assault weapons, and thousands of rounds of ammunition from two individuals in Riverside County, one of whom was prohibited from possessing firearms. The prohibited individual is listed as prohibited in the Armed and Prohibited Persons System (APPS) due to a mental health-based prohibition. As required by the law, prohibited individuals must relinquish any firearms, magazines, and ammunition in their possession. California Department of Justice agents initially went to the home of the individuals — both of whom are seniors — to allow the prohibited person to turn over his weapons, magazines, and ammunition voluntarily. However, the prohibited person and his spouse refused entry and were uncooperative. As a result, DOJ and Menifee Police Department executed a search warrant to recover the weapons. Upon entry, they found 54 guns from the seniors’ home — including two AR-15 style assault rifles, two UZI assault weapons, and 35 handguns — as well as 157 magazines and 2,200 rounds of ammunition. Three of these weapons were loaded, located in plain sight, and were not locked in a safe that would be inaccessible to the prohibited person.
