                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Central District of California
                     James V. Selna, District Judge, Presiding

                      Argued and Submitted October 7, 2013
                              Pasadena, California

Before: PREGERSON, WARDLAW, and TALLMAN, Circuit Judges.

        On November 12, 2013, we vacated submission and stayed proceedings

        *
             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
pending resolution of Peruta v. County of San Diego, No. 10-56971. We now

resubmit the case and affirm the district court’s judgment.

       In Peruta, 824 F.3d 919 (9th Cir. 2016) (en banc), we held that a member of

the general public does not have a right under the Second Amendment to carry a

concealed firearm in public, and that a state may impose any restriction, including

a showing of good cause, on concealed carry. Id. at 939. The San Diego and Yolo

County Sheriff’s Department policies interpreting the California statutory good

cause requirement therefore survived a Second Amendment challenge. Id. For the

same reasons, the Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department’s policy regarding

good cause to issue a concealed carry license does not violate the Second

Amendment, and we affirm the district court’s order denying a preliminary

injunction to prohibit enforcement of the policy.

      AFFIRMED.
