In re the Interest of Jordan G.

Respondent, age 16, was charged under Juvenile Court Act with three counts of Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon (AUUW) statute and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm. Illinois Supreme Court's holding in Aguilar case, that age-based restrictions on right to keep and bear arms are historically rooted, applies equally to persons under age 21. Charges based on Class 4 form of Section 24-1.6(a)(1), (a)(3)(A) of AUUW statute are dismissed as facially unconstitutional per Aguilar decision. Sections 24-1.6(a)(1), (a)(3)(C) and (a)(3)(I) of AUUW statute are constitutional and severable from unconstitutional provision of statute.(GARMAN, FREEMAN, THOMAS, KILBRIDE, KARMEIER, and BURKE, concurring.)
