The Orange County Sheriff’s Department may hire temporary staff to help process a flood of concealed weapons permit applications in the wake of its decision to loosen the county’s gun restrictions.
Sheriff Sandra Hutchens announced the policy change last week in response to a pro-gun U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that California counties may no longer require residents who want to carry concealed firearms to demonstrate a specific, individualized need to do so.
Because the ruling is not yet final, and if successfully appealed may never take effect, Hutchens said applicants are encouraged to submit a statement of “good cause,” even though it’s no longer required.
