HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) A Connecticut judge has dismissed a lawsuit by Newtown families against the maker of the rifle used in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, saying federal law shields gun manufacturers from most lawsuits over criminal use of their products.
Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis on Friday granted a motion by Madison, North Carolina-based Remington Arms to strike the lawsuit by the families of nine children and adults killed and a teacher who survived the 2012 attack. A gunman killed 20 children and six adults at the school with an AR-15-style rifle.

Thank you for your clear and thoughtful review, in which I agree. I thought the actual suit was important to look over. I’m glad you found it of interest as well.
If you review the actual suit that I posted, you can review the names there.
Funny how the complaint repeatedly mentions the model of the firearm recovered, BUT NEVER ITS SERIAL NUMBER !
What a pleasant Friday!
I remember back around 1981 when the anti-gun radicals said they ONLY wanted to control handguns! RIFLES will NOT be affected they said. AR-15s had at that time been on the open market for about fifteen years.
I’m trying to be open-minded here.
Judge Barbara Bellis is one of the finest judges Connecticut has ever had.
Nowadays, the court filings from both sides and the judge should be available online. Look for a website for State of Connecticut Judicial System.
I’m certainly no ‘truther’ but I will say that there’s a preponderance of difficult questions surrounding this event.
There’s a video on YT of people walking in circles at a fire station that’s just plain weird.
There are pictures and video of the fire station from the afternoon of the shooting with a pallet of water bottles and stacks of pizzas for all of the people who showed up at the fire station. Maybe it’s innocent but it does indicate planning on someone’s part.
There’s some old guy who said he sheltered some kids in one interview and then in another interview he says something else completely.
& etc.
Maybe there’s rational explanations for all of this and I won’t rule it out. The questions remain although to me the questions are just a WTF?? kind of thing and not anything to where I’m convinced that someone in our government planned the mass slaughter of a bunch of children just to make some obscure political point.
I just can’t bring myself to imagine such a thing. It’s just too horrible to contemplate.
Perhaps he can give his opinion of this matter you discuss.

Happy reading, or at least I'm reading it.
I tried to look on the CT judicial case look-up....found nothing else 4 U. :(
Re: the pizza thing. This is Connecticut. There are pizza joints everywhere making crappy pizzas by the dozens.

The entire lawsuit is unjustified.
Thank you. I won’t ask how you found it ...b/c I had no luck....probably typed in the wrong CV number.
Thank you, for your diligence.
The attacks on the 2A will never end.
The biggest joke is, Connecticut's nickname is the *Constitution State*. LMAO
Where in THE HELL do you get your information?
Which fire chief are you talking about? If you’re talking about Bill Halstead, the Chief of the Sandy Hook Fire Dept., he is also the town Fire Marshal.
His wife is the TOWN CLERK.
Can’t you bozos get anything right?
I’m here. I live in Sandy Hook since 1998. My neighbor’s child was killed (yes he’s dead) in the shooting.
Another friend’s son hid in a closet for hours until they found him. He still has nightmares.
So enough of the bulls—t about all this, because that’s what it is.
Whoa there, I'm on your side, never been a truther.
