Felony Conviction
If you have been convicted of a felony as described in Section 790.23,
Florida Statutes, and the felony conviction occurred within the State
of Florida, your civil rights and firearm rights must
be restored by the Florida Office of Executive Clemency. Felony convictions
occurring in another state require restoration of civil and firearm
rights by the state in which the conviction occurred. If you were convicted
of a felony under federal law, you must have a presidential pardon or
have been granted federal relief from disabilities. If your civil
rights and firearms rights have not been restored as described above,
or if you cannot provide proof of restoration of civil rights and firearms
rights, you are not eligible for a Concealed Weapon or Firearm License.
