SAF SUES IN MARYLAND OVER HANDGUN PERMIT DENIAL UPDATED 3-5-12

[gfmgp]

We need a Maryland CCW class like the Utah to get everything done in one place. I think that would get the MSPs attention.

This is incredible, I thought for sure they would at least issue some sort of waiting period! Has anyone heard if they have stayed the order? How long does this whole "stay" thing normally take?

He doesn't have an actual permit. He just completed the application process.

They have 28 or 30 days to file a stay.

I am waiting on the 'ok' to post the place, but I got my whole app completed in ~15 min.. from filling in forms to fingerprints to notary....

Count on AT LEAST 4 months. I bet longer with the number of people who will be applying

no doubt about the time wait..


i printed out the form myself..

I met with Del. Dwyer today and he is serious about the issue. So is Smigiel. I'd say send note of your application to them and to MSI.

We are going to track these. We intend to compile a small DB of statuses for future use in potential amicus briefs, etc. And if someone pops and asks the question, "Hey, who do we know who falls under this condition...", we will have ready access to a pool of people. Remember that Ray Woollard was originally found via this forum. We would obviously contact you directly before ever considering a release of personal info. Think of it as a judicial match-making service.

We don't have training now. Why would the addition of another unnecessary step to delay your permit be a good idea? Nope, MD says training is not needed now, so let's keep it that way.

I'm all for training but not state mandated training. I don't need a class to teach me how to exercise a right.

Is there a thread that explains or walks through the MD CCW process?

Well I know earlier you mentioned possibly going up to Maryland Livescan in Glen Burnie. Is that the place?

Question: The application pg 13 says: State of Maryland County of __________ but I am getting this notarized out of state, should I simply have the notary cross out Maryland and write the applicable state?

 

[2ndsupporter]

It will be interesting to see how fast this is pushed thru the circuit court. I can only imagine it will be a LOT quicker than when it's a loss on our side. Especially quick if a stay is not granted.

It is just nice to get everything done for the permit in one place. fingerprints,notary,not needed training.

i assume that should work.. but if you live in maryland why not use an instate notary or go to your bank?

 

[fightinbluhen51]

My thought has always been that if the State gives us Open Carry without G&S, but Concealed requiring G&S....we call their bluff.

I will get myself the 8" S&W .500 I've never wanted (in shiny chrome), put on my thongs, a smile and my S&W and head off to Chuckie Cheese's. It won't be pretty.

MD will never prefer OC over CC. It works in other places, not here....and I'm thankful for that as I really don't want that S&W and, well, you get it...

I see what you did there...

not all utah class does that.. one stop shop deal.. just depending who is training and are they certified to do the finger printing.

The Livescan Office will be closed on Thursday 3-8-12

How about affidavits from people who haven't the money to lose on a failed filing? I would file tomorrow if I wasn't pretty sure they'd throw it away for me...

gotcha.. thats what i figured... it shouldnt be a problem... if dmv or other agency accepts notary from other states (thinking about bill of sale) why not msp..
