It depends on where you are. In the U.S. at least, each state sets its own regulations for issuing permit, so it depends on the state in which you apply. If it is a felony charge, in the U.S. you can no longer own or possess a gun, much less get a gun permit, unless you have had your rights restored. If it is a misdemeanor charge, it just depends on the state and whatever that state's rules are.

As a passenenger in a vehilce can I be charged with receiving stolen property for the stolen property found in the trunk of the vehicle I was riding?

No, although it would be a "stretch" for authorities they might be able to charge the passenger as an accessory to a crime if the person knew about the theft and the stolen property being transported in the vehicle they were riding in. Receiving stolen property means the person accepting the items was aware of the fact that those items were not the lawful property of the presenter and were obtained during the commission of a crime.

Can you sue for malicious prosecution after beating the charges of receiving stolen property for stolen property found in the trunk of someone else's vehicle pertaining to lack of probable cause?

I would say yes because what if the person who received the property did not know it was stolen? Would you want to be able to contest something against you if you knew it wasn't true? I know I would, so just think about it. If you got wrongfully charged with receiving stolen property and you didn't know the property was stolen when you received it, wouldn't you want to be able to contest the charge??

If you actually had the stolen property you can be charged with "receiving stolen property" and you can use the "I didn't know" defense but the prosecution will try just as hard to believe that you DID know, or SHOULD HAVE known. (e.g.: you had in your possession a brand new 52" flat screen TV that you bought for $10.)
