Can a felon reside in a residence where someone posses a concealed weapon license?
The short answer is yes. The more detailed answer is, a felon cannot have access to or control over a firearm. Simply being in the vicinity of a firearm does not necessarily mean that the person has access to or control over the firearm. However, generally speaking, having a gun in a house where there is a felon is not a good idea. If you have a CCW but no gun in the residence, there is no problem.

The separated spouse of a convicted felon is not legally prohibited from purchasing a firearm.

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.
