COURT OF APPEALS FINDS FOR FLEOA, NJ FOP IN LEOSA CASE

This week, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA) and the New Jersey Lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police (NJ FOP) in a case surrounding the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA).

As relevant here, LEOSA allows qualified retired law enforcement officers (QRLEOs) to concealed carry across the United States and its territories. The law is aimed to improve public safety by allowing retired law enforcement officers to serve as a force multiplier in the public.

The law passed unanimously through both the House and Senate in 2004.
