Kuck v. Danaher

X

Thank you for sharing!

Your article was successfully shared with the contacts you provided.
Argued: September 17, 2009

Before: STRAUB, B.D. PARKER, AND LIVINGSTON, Circuit Judges.

Plaintiff-Appellant M. Peter Kuck appeals from a judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut (Bryant, J.) dismissing his complaint. Kuck’s claims arise from his efforts to renew his permit to carry a firearm with the Connecticut Department of Public Safety (“DPS”). His principal claim is a procedural due process challenge alleging that DPS — in tandem with the Board of Firearms Permit Examiners (“the Board”) — has a practice of improperly denying permits, unnecessarily prolonging the appeals that follow, and then quietly resolving disputes at the last minute. In addition, Kuck claims that his firearm permit appeal was deliberately delayed by state officials in retaliation for his outspoken criticism of DPS and Board practices, in violation of his First Amendment rights.
