There are a number of circumstances where a person could lose their right to possess firearms. Most frequently these circumstances include the conviction of a felony, a conviction of a misdemeanor with a DV designation, and being involuntarily committed to a mental health treatment facility. In some situations, a person may even lose their firearm rights after a felony is dismissed after a deferred sentence.
Eligibility for Restoration
Eligibility for the restoration of firearm rights depends on multiple factors, including the type of conviction, the amount of time that has passed, and whether any additional disqualifying events have occurred.
