ISAIAH KAIN SALAS-MARTINEZ, Appellant

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS

═══════════════════════════════════════
On Appellant’s Petition for Discretionary Review
From the First Court of Appeals
Harris County
═══════════════════════════════════════

Per curiam.

We granted Appellant’s petition for discretionary review to
consider whether Penal Code Section 46.02, which says it is unlawful
for a person to carry a gun outside of his house, is unconstitutional in
light of the Supreme Court’s opinion issued in New York State Rifle and
SALAS-MARTINEZ – 2

Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1 (2022)? Having now
examined the record and the briefs of the parties, we conclude that our
decision to grant review in this particular case was improvident. We
therefore dismiss Appellant’s petition as improvidently granted.
