What the court held
In this appeal from a challenge to a Stroud Township zoning ordinance restricting target shooting, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued a one-paragraph per curiam order on July 6, 2022. The order vacates the briefing directives set out in the court's June 6, 2022 order and directs the parties to address the question presented under the standards announced in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, decided June 23, 2022. Justice Brobson did not participate. The order resolves nothing about the ordinance itself.
