This may be a difficult question.
When I was 14 I stayed 8 days at Sheppard Pratt. It had nothing to do with mental illness. The juvenile section was for a max 5-8 day stay for behavior incidents. I have never been arrested, nor have I had the police called on me for any reason. I am now 25.
Will I have to contact a doctor and prove that I am mentally fit to own a gun? (that is one option that I read) Or can I get this easily be expunged somehow?
Being a minor at the time, and being that my parents committed me, I am thinking that this may be considered voluntary commitment by law. I read that only 30 or more days of voluntary commitment in MD forbids you from owning a gun.
