How can failed felony prosecutions at the state level be retried at the federal level?
The usual method is by the US Attorney's Office stepping in and declaring that the case has an over-riding federal issue and then prosecuting the offender(s) under a federal charge worded differently than the charge that the state tried them under, thus avoiding the 'double jeapordy' prohibition of the Constitution.

IIRC, a DUI felony is a state, and not federal felony. At the moment, no - federal law prohibits anyone with a felony record from purchasing, possessing, or having access to a firearm.

Bear in mind, though, that nothing is guaranteed.

Can you get your rights back after a federal felony?
You have to apply to get it back thru the clemency website of your state. Honestly i dont think they give it back to federal felons but i could be wrong so give it a shot. But i seriously doubt it tho. Reason why is because the worse the felony is then the less likely you can get any of your rights back and with federal felony being the worse before the worse then id doubt that they would give you your rights back. Good luck tho
