Restoration of Firearm Privilege
- Beginning August 1, 2011, an individual who has been convicted of a non-violent felony offense or a misdemeanor offense may petition the court for restoration of firearm privilege. The petition may be granted only if the individual has (1) paid all fines & fees, (2) served all terms of imprisonment, (3) successfully completed all conditions of parole & probation and (4) the individual’s record and reputation do not indicate he would be a danger to the safety of others.
- The Office of Attorney General (and the BCI) are prohibited from providing legal advice or assistance to the public and therefore we cannot provide any further information about this process. For more information, or to initiate a petition, contact an attorney in private practice.
