State court judges who are licensed to carry concealed weapons can pack heat in places most other people can't under a new Michigan law.

Gun-free zones include stadiums, bars, schools and hospitals. A 2001 Michigan Supreme Court order adds courtrooms to that list unless the chief judge gives prior approval.
