First: they can be arrested, tried, and convicted of an unrelated crime before going to trial for the unlawful carry. That conviction makes them ineligible to have a CHL and it can be revoked, then they go to trial for the unlawful carry but they are no longer CHL holders.jbarn wrote:A license cannot be revoked for an offense until there is a conviction.txinstructor wrote:Maybe the license was revoked before they were convicted of unlawful carry....by the time they were convicted of the unlawful carry they were no longer CHL holders.
Second: There are also several instances where it can be revoked without a conviction. The first that comes to mind is if they hare placed under a protective order or restraining order affecting the spousal relationship. Another one is if they become ineligible to purchase a handgun under federal or state law. There are several reasons you might not be qualified to purchase a handgun that have nothing to do with being convicted of a crime - being under indictment for a felony (not convicted, just under indictment), being a fugitive from justice, a dishonorable discharge...
Heck, they can revoke it for changing addresses without notifying them if you do it often enough.
