How do I get my rights back?

Back in 1998 I pled no contest to misdeminor spouse abuse (pc 243 e). I have finished my probation, paid all fines, attended all classes. as of Jan,02 it has been expunged from my record. I would like to know what I have to do to get back my right to own a firearm. I have always been an avid sport shooter but have not been able to since this. I was told in court that the expungement did not include the firearms portion of this matter. I have done my own paperwork for court but I dont know where to start or what to file. Please help me!

Re: How do I get my rights back?

If you did not obtain restoration of firearms rights at the time of expungement, you will need to have an attorney prepare and file a motion for that. Call if interested in hiring an attorney that is also a shooter. 714-960-7584
