2013 House Bill 5091

Senate Roll Call 802: Passed

To revise the definition of illegally "brandishing" a firearm to state that it applies only to a person who acts in a "willful" manner. The bill would also establish that pointing a gun at someone to defend oneself or another is not "brandishing." House Bill 5092 establishes a statutory definition of brandishing that requires an "intent" to threaten.
