Judge rules NRA can't be dissolved by New York attorney general

The National Rifle Association cannot be dissolved in New York as part of the attorney general’s corruption case against the gun-rights group and its leadership, a judge has ruled.

New York state Justice Joel Cohen said that attorney general Letitia James can, however, pursue other claims against individual defendants.

The ruling is a major setback for Ms James, who was elected to the attorney general’s office on a platform of prosecuting the NRA and the Trump Organisation.

Mr Cohen said that because the case concerns private harm to the NRA, its members and donors, less intrusive relief could be targeted if the accusations are proven, including against the group’s Chief Executive Wayne LaPierre.
