If a felony conviction is expunged can a person own a handgun?
If an otherwise felon's case is expunged, they may own a firearm, provided there are no other felony records. Expunction of a case gives it the same effects as no case to begin with. The same is true if a case is sealed vs. expunged. A sealed case means that only certain law-enforcement or Government agency can view it. Another type of conviction is known as adjudication withheld, meaning that if the otherwise felon successfully completed their probation and other sanctions, there would be no record of guilt, though the case may still be viewable by the public. However, an adjudication withheld case allows the person to own or possess firearms, barring any other types of firearm restriction, such as a domestic violence offense.
