BENNINGTON â A Bennington man charged with illegally possessing large-capacity rifle magazines intends to renew efforts to get his case dismissed, this time by arguing for his rights under the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
The man, Max Misch, is facing two misdemeanor charges after police found a couple of 30-round rifle magazines at his home in February 2019. Authorities said Misch bought them amid a Vermont ban that outlaws magazines containing more than 10 rounds for long guns and more than 15 rounds for handguns.
The public defender representing Misch told the Bennington Superior criminal court on Monday that his office plans to file another request to dismiss the case.
Misch plans to ask for dismissal of magazine case based on 2nd Amendment

BENNINGTON â Former state Rep. Kiah Morris said Tuesday that a change in leadership at the town managerâs office and Bennington Police Department are necessary to bring about systemic change in town â among her first public remarks after her family settled with the town over a discrimination-related BPD complaint.
Morris, her husband and their son filed a complaint with the Vermont Human Rights Commission in 2019, alleging that Bennington police failed to adequately investigate racially motivated harassment against their family because of their race and color. Morris, who is African American, mentioned the harassment when she announced her resignation as a Bennington state representative in 2018.
