Juvenile case over 20 years ago
32PC (Wobbler)
P.C 17b motion to drop felony case to misdemeanor was approved (Wobbler changed to misdemeanor)
P.C. 1203.4 petition to dismiss the misdemeanor case was granted

The forms that I received from the court states that although my case was dropped to misdemeanor, then dismissed, I do not have my gun rights restored. What are the steps to restore gun rights?

Thank you

It depends on what the conviction was for. While the reduction doesn't necessarily restore gun rights, if it's not a domestic violence or crime involving a dangerous weapon, the reduction does have that effect.

FlyingRon,

The 32PC was for a 187 case (Which I was not a part of)

No dangerous weapons involved (.i.e. firearms)
Not a domestic violence case
Not a case involving drug offenses

Thank you again for your response.
