FAQ
To be eligible for the restoration of gun rights in Minnesota, felons must satisfy several requirements: completing any sentence imposed, including probation or parole and demonstrating that they have been rehabilitated and no longer pose a risk to public safety.
A Certificate of Relief from Civil Disabilities is a Certificate issued by a Court or the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision which restores a person's civil right following a conviction. It can also be used to restore a person's firearms rights.
The Second Amendment Permits The Disarming of “Dangerous” Felons. Each year, more than 8,000 people are convicted for unlawful possession of a firearm under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g). About 90% of those cases arose from gun possession by a felon.
For those with more than one conviction, the court may restore firearms rights two years after completion of sentence for most felonies, or after 10 years for a serious felony (such as murder or sexual assault). For a person convicted of a “dangerous felony” firearms rights may only be restored by pardon.
The 1968 Gun Control Act and subsequent amendments codified at 18 U.S.C. § 921 et seq. prohibit anyone convicted of a felony and anyone subject to a domestic violence protective order from possessing a firearm.
By federal law there is nothing that prohibits a felon from being “in a house” where there are guns but the felon cannot have access to the guns. So, as long as the guns are locked up where the felon cannot access them, no law has been broken.
