Lance Walker is a federal judge known for his judicial decisions that often revolve around constitutional rights, particularly the Second Amendment. Recently, he made headlines by pausing a new three-day waiting period for gun purchases in Maine, which was enacted following a tragic mass shooting in Lewiston. His ruling was based on the assertion that the law lacked justification for disarming individuals who had already passed background checks, indicating a likelihood of success for the plaintiffs challenging the law.
