Yes you will be rejected. You have to wait 5 years from the disposition of your case.

If you were convicted (including deferred adjuducation) then you are ineligible for 5 years as pointed out. If the charges were dropped or you were acquitted, then you are fine.

We don't know what "had a misdemanor [sic] class b [sic] means".

I thought the 5 year thing only applied to class a misdemeanors...

Get yourself a florida license. All you got to do is mail your training document to them and they will send you one in the mail. Make sure you study up on other states you might be going to. In New Mexico, your Fla. license is not accepted as you are a Texan but you can open carry without a license.
I got deferred adjuducation in 2006 for Throwing a Beer can in Some POS's car while he was on a deputy's property. " He shouldnt have throw the crap out in front of my place". I never even bothered with the Texas CHL because of the BS requirements.
The deferred adjuducation rejection is a bunch of BS.

Is it really that simple to get a Florida license??

 

[RetArmySgt]

Not exactly, its that easy if you were/are Military or LE but not for the average joe.

I would not get an out of state license until the current Texas legislative session ends. There has been a bill filed that, if passed, would not allow a Texas resident to carry on an out of state license.

You can try for an AZ permit, too. This is what I did. I believe it was $75 for a five-year permit.

Look in the Legistative section of this forum. There is a thread with all of the bills in one place.

Look up Lon Burnam's bills. He has several POS bill in the house.

This bill hasn't even gotten a committee hearing, that's when to get worried. Plus his NRA "F" rating makes it hard for pro-gun representatives to sign on to the bill.

Just my 2¢.....
