Humbly asking for someone to walk me through the process of petitioning the court with the purpose of restoration of firearms rights for my Husband. I have heard success stories from others, though I know it's not necessarily easy. My Husband had mostly juvenile charges on his record, but has had a clean record since the year 2000. He tried to apply for his FOID in 2013 and was denied. We tried again last year and were denied again apparently due to a felony charge. At this point I believe his only option is to petition the court. I have been told I need to gather all of his records from the DOC, and I did send a message through their website (hopefully the correct site), I've also been told I'll need all of the police reports pertaining to his record - I'm assuming I request them from whatever department he was charged in? We did get his fingerprinting done a few years ago, so that can easily be uploaded. And then finally I've read that I'll need at least 3 letters from separate people/employers speaking on his positive character and good standing within the community after his release when he was a juvenile. If there's anything I'm missing, or if you're comfortable sharing the petition process that has been successful for you, please feel free to let me know or PM me. I'll be attempting to start this process myself and it seems quite daunting! I certainly don't want to miss anything. Thank you for reading, Kate
