So hypothetical situation. You are a doctor or therapist of some kind that requires removal of a patient/client's street clothes. The client has a LTCH and is carrying.
Assuming no policy issues with the building where can the patient legally have their gun?
Can it be in the pile of clothes on the other side of the exam room?
Or, does the patient have to find a place to to keep it on their person?
If I were the provider I would prefer the gun be with the pile of clothes, (more out of awkwardness of a naked person holding a gun during an exam than fear of the LTCH bearing patient) but logic does not always enter into legality, so I am curious.
Please feel free to opinionate, but I am interested in the real legal answer too.
