Actually, you must wait for 7 years after you have been discharged from parole. There is no way around the waiting period. If you went to state prison you must wait for 7 years after being discharged from parole. It is by statue and is therefore black letter law.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact my office at www.brianmcginitylaw.com

Good luck
