Re: Jury duty -- do we check our 2A rights at the door?

If you want to carry it...drive in...leave it in the car, once you walk in the doors at the courthouse with a CHL carrying you are already in violation...

Section
PC 46.03
Places Weapons Prohibited
...(3) on the premises of any government court or offices utilized by the court, unless pursuant to written regulations or written authorization of the court....
........
It is not a defense to prosecution under this section that the actor possessed a handgun and was licensed to carry a concealed handgun under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code.

So even being on the premises of the courthouse, you are already in violation.
