Re: CHL's and felony charges?
State law mandates that a person with a felony conviction can not have a CHL. In fact, they're not allowed to buy or even possess a handgun, by federal law. The only way to get around it is to have the convictions expunged. He may be eligible for expungement, depending on some things about his conviction. Was he paroled, and did he complete his parole successfully? Was he convicted of any crime related to children (molestation, etc.), or violence, such as aggravated robbery, assault, murder, etc.? If it was back in '78, he might be eligible. An attorney could look at his record and tell you.
