This bill proposes the creation of a new section in the North Dakota Century Code that provides an exemption from liability for public and private entities regarding injuries, deaths, or property damage caused by individuals carrying concealed dangerous weapons. Specifically, it states that such entities cannot be held liable for incidents involving individuals permitted to carry these weapons under the law.
Additionally, the bill amends section 62.1-02-05, which governs the possession of firearms or dangerous weapons at public gatherings. Notably, it removes the prohibition against possessing a firearm or dangerous weapon at a church or place of worship, thereby allowing individuals to carry such weapons in these locations if authorized. The bill also clarifies that churches and places of worship cannot be held liable for incidents involving concealed weapons carried by individuals permitted under the law.
