Alaska Supreme Court

Steven William Eng v. State of Alaska, Department of Public Safety

October 25, 2024

Summary

The court affirmed summary judgment for the State, holding that Eng’s domestic violence protective order remained effective indefinitely under Alaska law and qualified as a federal firearms-disqualifying order. The court further held that Eng’s remaining arguments, including challenges concerning modification of the order and related constitutional claims, were not ripe because he had not sought to dissolve or modify the order.
