Florida Carry has sued more than a dozen police departments plus 15 Palm Beach County agencies including the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, which filed more than 1,400 Extreme Risk Protection Orders over four years, alleging violations of state statute in firearm confiscation petitions. Ryan Gartner is suing Sheriff Rik Bradshaw after a 2022 deputy claimed he pointed a gun at his brother in a vacuum cleaner dispute; Gartner had never been arrested, psychologists at JFK North Hospital cleared him, and prosecutors dropped the aggravated assault charge. A judge granted a temporary order without Gartner's participation despite no sworn statements from his brother or parents, seized his guns, then issued a 10-month final order. Attorney Roger P. Foley said the law should be revisited because public mental health case records affect employment and licenses for years and seized firearms return without addressing problems.
