Question About Criminal Defense:

Anonymous: Can I go shoot a gun with a friend I’m a convicted felon of a non violent crime I was released in 2011? I have my voting rights back I just don’t want to get in trouble

Answer From Kansas City Missouri Criminal Defense Lawyer Justin Hunt:

 A felony means you lose your gun rights for life. You need an expungement or a pardon to get them back.
