If I was threatened

Post by henryevans »

If I have a ccw and I was charged with aggravated menacing as a M-1 Will I lose my right to carry? Will I ever be allowed to carry?

As I understand it, in Ohio Aggravated Menacing is considered a Misdemeanor Offense of Violence and as such would cause someone to lose their CHL for 3 years. After that period is over, they could have their CHL restored or could re-apply if it expired during that period.

See ORC 2923.125 (D)(1)(f), 2901.01 (A)(9), and 2903.21

His question was would he lose it if he was charged. Does he forfeit the license only upon conviction, or upon charges being filed ?

Methinks a charge means nothing until convicted. As usual, IMNAL, in fact, I barely think.

Even a charge of a disqualifying offense suspends the license until/unless the charges are dropped. Yes, I know. But that's how the law reads.

A small side note: My understanding is that it's supposed to be a county sheriff's office that physically comes and confiscates the carry license during the investigation, not local PD.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Ohio law says they sheriff that issued the license must notify them by certified mail that they are required to surrender the license. From ORC 2923.128(A):
(3) Upon becoming aware of an arrest, charge, or protection order described in division (A)(1)(a) of this section with respect to a licensee who was issued a concealed handgun license, or a conviction of or plea of guilty to a misdemeanor offense described in division (A)(2)(a) of this section with respect to a licensee who was issued a concealed handgun license and with respect to which division (A)(2)(c) of this section does not apply, subject to division (C) of this section, the sheriff who issued the licensee's license shall notify the licensee, by certified mail, return receipt requested, at the licensee's last known residence address that the license has been suspended and that the licensee is required to surrender the license at the sheriff's office within ten days of the date on which the notice was mailed
But yes, it is the sheriff's responsibility though I suspect local PD seize them as a matter of course.
