Law Text
This law says prosecutors don't have to prove that someone lacked a valid reason for carrying a concealed weapon when charging them. They only need to show that the person carried a concealed weapon like a pistol or knife. If the person claims they had a legal excuse, it's up to them to prove it in court.
