The Facts of Quilici v. Morton Grove:
In June of 1981 the trustees of the town of Morton Grove, Illinois voted in favor of a law which prohibited the possession of handguns in the home. A lawyer and gun owning resident, Victor Quilici filed a lawsuit challenging the law claiming that it violated his Second Amendment right. The district court ruled that the Second Amendment does not apply to the states, that the right to bear arms is inextricably connected to the preservation of a militia, that state legislatures may regulate or restrict state legislatures, and municipalities may limit private access to weapons under their power to provide for the public health and safety. The US Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court's decision.
