WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court has set a date for hearing arguments in the D.C. gun ban case.
Oral arguments will take place March 18 at 10 a.m.
The court will examine the District's 31-year-old ban on handguns, one of the strictest gun-control laws in the nation.
A federal appeals court struck down the ban in March as incompatible with the Second Amendment.
At issue is whether the Second Amendment of the Constitution protects an individual's right to own guns or instead merely sets forth the collective right of states to maintain militias.
