If someone has been involuntarily held on a 5250 (NOT 5150) which triggers a “lifetime” ban, how does that person petition to get their rights back? What is the process? Is it possible? According to the NICS improvement act of 2007, the fed requires participating states (including CA) to have a system in place for those prohibited to apply for “relief from disabilities” and have their name taken off the NICS red flag list. New York has a system and a bureau dedicated to this, the application is called a certificate of relief from disabilities. I’ve talked to one lawyer already who says CA has no system and it is impossible to get rights back after a 5250 hold. (Which violates federal law and probably the constitution) I’m not sure if this is true or not. There must be a way.
There’s a group/forum in New York dedicated to people who have applied and/or are in the process of applying for a COR. Is there such a group in CA? I can’t even find a single person who has even attempted this let alone been successful.
