The wife & I are looking to re-locate soon to Texas and I was looking into several things prior.
We are planning on coming down and visiting several times checking out areas soon as well.
Had some questions regarding Misdemeanors
Currently living in NYS & I have 3 past convictions of 'A' Misdemeanors.
All over 5 years ago with not even a parking ticket since.
None Violent.
None Domestic related.
1 of which is classified as a "Serious Offense' & prohibits one from owning a firearm unless you obtain what's called a Certificate Of Relief From Civil Disabilities which allows you to own a firearm again.
Criminal Trespass - Obtained a cert of relief
DUI - obtained a cert of relief
Possession of Controlled Substance in the 7th degree (trace amounts) - in process of applying for certificate of relief
If I am reading it correctly, Texas law states after 5 years, I should be OK to apply for a CHL & fine for longuns, correct?
Apologies, but if you guys are as knowledgeable as the guys on the forums up here, you'll have the answers.
Thanks !
Chris
