Court to review speedy approval of New York gun controls Mar 1st 2013, 19:13 ALBANY, N.Y. –  A group of 1,200 New Yorkers has forced a court review of whether New York's new gun controls were rushed into law in violation of the state constitution. Robert Schulz, of Warren County, calls Gov. Andrew Cuomo a "king" for pushing through the nation's toughest gun law by suspending the three-day review usually required before votes on bills. Cuomo and legislative leaders agreed on the bill in closed-door negotiations and put the politically dicey measure to a vote at night in mid-January. That was after Cuomo issued a "message of necessity," which allows the constitutional waiting period to be suspended. Schulz and his co-plaintiffs won an order Friday that will require the governor and Legislature to prove the message of necessity was warranted. Cuomo had no comment.
