The Goldwater Institute on October 23, 2026, asked the full Ninth Circuit to revisit a decision upholding California's round-the-clock recording rule for federally licensed firearms dealers in Richards v. Newsom (No. 25-693). Dealers, including those working from residences, must capture video plus audio in business zones at all times, store the files a year or longer, and provide them to authorities under state inspection rules. Goldwater says this breaches dealers' First and Fourth Amendment protections and risks capturing talks among patrons, staff, and relatives, raising whether officials can require home conversation recordings solely due to a licensed firearms operation.
