A University of Missouri law professor is suing the the University, saying banning guns on campus violates state law.

Law professor Royce De Barondes has named the MU Board of Curators and MU President Tim Wolfe in the lawsuit.

His attorney, Jennifer Bukowsky, said an amendment to the state constitution passed last November protects his right to conceal and carry.
