No, absolutely not. A convicted felon may not own, possess, or have access to firearms.
can a convicted felon's wife own a firearm that is not in his home
Yes, living with a felon does not change your rights, however, you cannot allow the felon to have access to or control over a firearm.Additional: Re: possessing the firearm - - you will not be able to keep the weapon in the same home or vehicle or anywhere where the felon could conceivably have access to it. The felon does not have to actually hold the weapon in their hands in order to "possess" it. Just being within the vicinity of it puts them in, what the law terms as, "constructive possession."
not any place in the U.S.
Not if you leave it alone.
No. A convicted felon is neither allowed to own or "POSSESS" firearms. A firearm in a convicted felon's home places them in what is known as "constructive possession" of the firearm and is illegal.
If he has served the full term of his sentence and is not on parole or probation, yes. HOWEVER - if they are on parole or probation it would not be unusual for one of the conditions of their release to be that they not associate with known felons. THAT might prevent them from holding employment at a place where another convicted felon is employed.
There's a place in Roscommon
The separated spouse of a convicted felon is not legally prohibited from purchasing a firearm. HOWEVER, if it is contemplated that the convicted felon may be anywhere around the firearm, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE IN THE SAME RESIDENCE, it will place the convicted felon in "concurrent possession" of that firearm and he may be arrested, charged, and imprisoned. ALSO: If the evidence suggests, the prosecution MAY try to prove that the separated spouse knowingly conspired to supply the availability of the firearm to the felon, and charge them as an accessory.
Not all, but some states offer a limited restoration of your firearms privileges. You would have to check with the state that convicted you and apply for that IF YOU WERE A STATE CONVICTED FELON. However, if you were a FEDERALLY convicted felon, forget it, currently there is no method in place to restore gun privileges. Congress has consistently refused to appropriate funds for this purpose.
Yes it is unlawful for you to be anywhere around firearms regardless of WHO owns them. To be in the same place as a firearm places you in what the law calls "concurrent possession" of the firearm. You could be convicted of the possession and sentenced to prison ESPECIALLY if you are a federally convicted felon.
If by "nondisclosure" you are referring to the process of expungement, you will have to apply in the state in which you were convicted.
