Jack1911 Posted August 15, 2019 at 02:59 PM Share Posted August 15, 2019 at 02:59 PM My 20 year old nephew was arrested for illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor. He plead guilty on 10/29/2018 and received 3 months of supervision. Yesterday (08/14/2019) He received a FOID revocation letter in the mail. We had no clue he was going to lose his FOID card as a result of this. Not to mention it took 10 months for the IL state police to mail him this notice.Does anyone know when he is eligible to get it back? He is now 21, and supervision was completed in January.Appreciate any insight anyone might have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly B. Posted August 15, 2019 at 03:06 PM Share Posted August 15, 2019 at 03:06 PM In a lot of courts, terms of supervision just automatically include the restriction on being in possession of firearms. He needs to submit a Request for Review. See attached form. If probation is the wrong term, strike it out and write in 'supervision' FOID Review Form IC-probation restriction dismissed (002).pdf Attach a certified copy of the final disposition showing he successfully completed supervision. Mail to address on the form using a mail service that will provide a signed receipt of delivery, also FAX to the number on the form. Please keep us posted on his progress in getting his FOID reinstated.FOID Review Form IC-probation restriction dismissed (002).pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveTA84 Posted August 15, 2019 at 04:17 PM Share Posted August 15, 2019 at 04:17 PM If he’s still on supervision, that’s why he’s FOID was revoked. If he’s no longer on it, then ISP dropped the ball (way late in sending a notice) and it needs to be fought Happened to me when I was 20 as well. Had to wait till everything was cleared up to get it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euler Posted August 15, 2019 at 05:22 PM Share Posted August 15, 2019 at 05:22 PM For a misdemeanor? ISP is out of control! The courts are ordering it and sending notice to ISP. My understanding is that "court" supervision is administered by a parole board. The parole board requests suspension of the FOID pro forma, because it just wants to apply the same conditions to everything, no matter what the charges. The court just signs off whatever the parole board asks, but the court could amend the conditions, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yurimodin Posted August 15, 2019 at 07:08 PM Share Posted August 15, 2019 at 07:08 PM I had 6 month court supervision for an excessive speeding ticket about 15 years ago (I was being really young and dumb) and this did not happen to me. I was not arrested tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcreek Posted August 16, 2019 at 01:35 PM Share Posted August 16, 2019 at 01:35 PM I may have missed something,but has anyone had a successful appeal for anything lately ? ISP s aim is to obtain FOID cards.Not grant them on appeal.Im sure the gov has put the word out to sand bag the issue.In our current inviroment this will only get worse.

Not that notice would somehow render it constitutional anyway. God,please, somebody sue over this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defendants who do not plead guilty are not eligible for court supervision. Read the plea agreement and get your lawyer to move to amend it before you sign it.
