Legal Question in Criminal Law in California
Accidental discharge of firearm
I want to apply for a CCW and 6 months ago I had an accidental discharge from my pistol while I was transporting it. The sheriffs department investigated it and there were no charges filed. Will that event prevent me from receiving the CCW since it will be the same department that will be issuing the permit?

You'll find out when you apply. It's their discretion to determine suitability for issuance. BTW: There is no such thing as an 'accidental' discharge; only 'negligent' discharges; and that says something about suitability for safe concealed carry.
