FAQ
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.
Once you have met all of your obligations under the law, Texas's "Second Chance Law" allows you to move on. You can move past a conviction and get on with your life. If you have been convicted or charged with a non-violent, low-level offense, contact Texas DWI lawyer Jason S.
A full restoration of rights, however, can only be achieved by submitting an application to the Clemency Section of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles. Without being granted a pardon, a felon's right to possess a firearm is limited to the place where they are living.
The eligibility criteria for a pardon in Texas are meticulously outlined, ensuring that only those who have shown genuine rehabilitation and transformation can apply. Typically, individuals who have completed their sentences, including any parole or probation periods, may be eligible.
Chances of Success All pardons are considered case-by-case, but most pardons are granted to those with minor convictions. In 2021, the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles recommended 75 noncapital clemency requests out of 140 applications considered (54%).
Unlike expungement, a pardon does not erase a criminal record. Instead, it is a formal forgiveness for the crime, relieving the individual from the legal consequences associated with the conviction.
If more than 5 years have passed since completing their prison sentence (including parole or probation), the law allows possessing a firearm at home.
Under this description, most muzzleloaders and black powder guns would be considered antique firearms. Due to their unique characteristics, these antique weapons are excluded from the definition of firearms under Texas state and federal law. This means that a felon can own an antique firearm without prohibition.
Are you requesting a Full Pardon and Restoration of Civil Rights for this offense? Only Texas felony and most misdemeanor convictions are eligible for full pardon consideration.
