BACKGROUND ISSUES

[PABLO DEL NORTE]

    FOR 15-17 YRS., I'VE BEEN BUYING RIFLES & SHOTGUNS. THEN OUT OF THE BLUE IN NOV. 2011, I WAS REJECTED GETTING A SHOTGUN FOR DUCK SEASON.  IT COMES FROM AN ARGUEMENT BETWEEN MY WIFE & I, BUT THE OLDEST STEP-DAUGHTER CALLED THE POLICE. SO THE COPS COME & EVENTUALLY SAY SOMEBODY HAS TO GO TO JAIL. SO INSTEAD OF HAVING MY WIFE GO, I GO. SO AFTER A WHILE, WE GO TO COURT,(BOTH OF US) & THE JUDGE(WHO HAPPENS TO BE THE JOP WHO MARRIED US & OUR OLDEST DAUGHTER!) SAYS GET COUNSELING & I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN. SO WE SEE COUNSELORS & THAT WAS WAS THE LAST I EVER HEARD OF IT UNTIL NOV. 2011.  I WENT TO THE COURTHOUSE YESTERDAY TO TALK TO THE JUDGE & HE IS RETIRED!! THE COURT ONLY KEEPS RECORDS FOR 10 YRS. & MY CASE IS CLOSED & NON-EXISTENT. YET THEY TELL ME IT IS STILL ON MY RECORD & ALWAYS HAS BEEN!!??!!?? NOT TRUE, I SAY UNTIL 3 OR 4 MONTHS AGO. THE COURT JUST SAYS IT CAN'T HELP ANYMORE!  NOW WHAT DO I DO??!!?? I DO NOT WANT THIS ON MY RECORD. I AM NOT THAT KIND OF PERSON!!!   
HELP.

Sucks, but that is the only way.

And what's up with these POS cops - someone has to go to jail? The SCOTUS has ruled that cops are not obligated in any way shape or form to enforce any law at any time. So why - when they feel like it - does someone have to go to jail?

What did you answer to question i: Have you been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence??
Did you plead or were found guilty?
It sounds like you were, if you were ordered to go to counseling unless the completion of counseling was in lieu of a guilty verdict. 

THEY TELL ME IT IS STILL ON MY RECORD & ALWAYS HAS BEEN!!??!!?? NOT TRUE, I SAY UNTIL 3 OR 4 MONTHS AGO.

   
How did you determine that it wasn't on your record until 3-4 months ago?
Criminal records do not "go away" (pardons, expunged convictions & restored rights are different) even if the court itself only keeps the records for 10 years. Go to the county/state and do a record search on yourself. They probably transfer the records to a storage facility so they don't have to build a new wing just to hold boxes and computers. You will probably need to go there.

If you were given the go ahead on a previous NCIC check, that doesn't mean the record doesn't exist, it just didn't raise the flag at that time.
And yes, you REALLY need to hire an attorney.
You might also send a thank you note to that prick Senator Frank Lautenberg for the domestic violence provision on gun ownership, but that would probably put you on yet another "list".

Do a search for Form 4473 and read Exception 1 and Definition 4.
