Best Answer

A felon can request a Certificate of Rehabilitation from the Division of Criminal Justice Services. After a felony conviction, one of three types of certificates will be issued, if requested, and the certificate awarded will depend upon what type of felony is involved. One certificate will grant only hunting rights be restored; one will allow a person to be employed and/or allow a person to carry a handgun for employment purposes; one will restore all disabilities resulting from a felony conviction. The address of the Division of Criminal Justice Services can be found on the internet in several places.
