Can a convicted felon who has been pardoned gain right to posse a handgun?
No. A "pardon" means that only his sentence has been pardoned. it does NOT mean that his crime or offense is wiped clean. He is still a convicted felon, just as if he had served the full term of his sentence in prison. As a convicted felon he may never own, or be in possession of, firearms.
Can a first time felon with a pardon hunt with a gun?
If the felon has received a PARDON, that is the same as if they were not convicted, and they may possess a firearm. But be sure you mean pardon, and not probation, parole, or any other term.
Can an ex-felon in California ever own a firearm?
Well, explain what you mean by "ex-felon". Were they convicted, and then acquitted of the charges later on? Because if they weren't, then they're not an "ex-felon" by any means - they are, and will always remain, a felon. Under federal law (that means, it applies to every state and territory of the United States), a felon may not purchase, possess, or have access to a firearm. Now, if they were later found to not be guilty of the crime they were convicted of, and were acquitted, then their rights would be restored.
What is the difference between a felon and a x felon?
A felon is someone who committed a felony(More serious crime) An ex felon is someone who has finished parole and is back in society. Sorry, that is incorrect. "Ex-felon" is a grossly, almost always misused term. A person who was in prison on felony charges but is now out of prison is still a felon. The only way to be an ex-felon is to have been acquitted of the charges. I should also add that an expungement does not make you an ex-felon either. An expungement simply means the felony is no longer on your PUBLIC record. Also, a felon can sometimes have his rights restored, but that doesn't make you an ex-felon either.
Where can a convicted felon go to find out what college majors will be acceptable in the job market?
To a counselor of the nearest community college would be a start. I'm not sure what you mean by "acceptable" but my boyfriend who is a convicted felon chose Business Management and has found a very forgiving and understanding career and will soon own his own business next spring. Good Luck.
Can a felon sell and serve alcohol?
Yes, but what do you mean by felon? Someone convicted of a felony 10 years ago that has completed their sentence is still a convicted felon. There is no law forbidding them to drink. Someone on active probation/parole can drink unless they are specifically ordered not to drink. A positive urinalysis for alcohol is not a violation unless they are ordered not to drink.
