New Jersey’s red flag law is being tested in a case involving a man who had his guns confiscated after his former doctor reported him.
Alfred Conti had his guns taken from his home by police in September after a surgeon who had sued him for defamation called authorities to report that the 56-year-old man “became agitatedâ€during a phone call, according to the Asbury Park Press.
A hearing was held this week in order to determine if Conti will have his guns returned to him or lose his Second Amendment right and be banned from owning a gun for a period of time.
Conti was involved in an ongoing dispute with Dr. Matthew Kaufman because he was still in pain after Kaufman performed neck surgery on him. He was reportedly dismissed from the medical practice due to his “aggressive†behavior, according to the news outlet.
