A small Illinois town on Monday was cleared to begin enforcing a 2018 prohibition on so-called “assault weapons” that was previously tied up in litigation.

Deerfield Mayor Harriet Rosenthal spearheaded a total ban on ownership of certain semi-automatic rifles following the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school shooting in Parkland, Florida, according to Patch. A judge last year issued an injunction on the town forbidding enforcement of the order, but a three-judge appeals panel reversed the ruling this week and sided with Deerfield leaders, the local outlet reported.
