 | | The appeal, argued by an NRA attorney, was heard by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in April of 2002. | | | The NRA brought its own lawsuit against the statute in Michigan federal court, but was dismissed by the court for lack of standing to sue. | | | In October 2000, the United States Supreme Court refused to hear a challenge brought by notorious assault weapon manufacturer Navegar, Inc., after the case had been dismissed by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. |

| | assault on Encyclopedia.com |
| | An assault may be both a crime and a tort, for which the party assaulted may sue for damages; the victim's freedom, as to move or remain at peace, must have been impinged on. | | | Modern criminal statutes recognize certain degrees of assault (e.g., with intent to kill, to do great bodily harm, to rape) as aggravated assaults and felonies, though simple assault remains, as at common law, a misdemeanor. | | | Either malevolence or recklessness (as in driving a car in reckless disregard of human life) may constitute the intent necessary to assault in most jurisdictions. |

| | The bill seeking to impose a ban on assault weapons was killed for this year's session Thursday by a unanimous vote of the Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee after the sponsor, Democratic Sen. Ethan Strimling of Portland, acknowledged flaws with the proposal. | | | The prohibition on assault weapons in Maine makes sense and should become law, while the bill's other restrictions related to.50-caliber rifles and ammunition should be removed. | | | Instead, he is backing a bill that would set minimum sentences for those who use assault weapons to commit crimes. |

| | Assault rifle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The phrase assault weapon has been used primarily in relation to a specific expired gun law that was commonly known as the 'Assault Weapons Ban', 'Clinton gun ban', or '1994 crime bill'. | | | Fully-automatic weapons were unaffected by the ban because they have been heavily restricted since the National Firearms Act of 1934, and other, more recent laws. | | | Many states and localities still use the term assault weapon with a variety of variations following the California model loosely. |
