Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
Can an individual who had a former restraining order that was turned into a permanent "order of stipulation", meaning he could not contact or go near the victim be allowed to keep their concealed weapons permit and weapons? Also the person in question now is being charged with aggravated assault with a firearm for another incident involving 3 minors on public school grounds. He owns a gun collection and appears to still be in possession of these firearms so my question is who if anyone should be contacted to alert the authorities of this situation and how would one best go about it without having to reveal one's identity?

If a person has an Injunction for Protection against them, he or she cannot possess or own firearms unless he or she is law enforcement or a member of the military. The proper course would be to call the police if someone is violating this law, but I don't know if it can be done anonymously. That would be up to the police.
