What is the name of your state? California
Last Year, May 24th of 2006 I was arrested and plead no contest to a felony domestic violence charge. The charge being "Corporal Injury to a Spouse." I hired a lawyer and he got me a decent plea agreement. Complete a 52 week class and the felony gets dropped to a misdemeanor. So I've done my class and currently awaiting my court date to get my charges reduced. My plea agreement also includes expungement after 2 years of the misdemeanor. I am also going from formal to informal probation as per my plea agreement with the charge reduction.
What are, if any, the steps I can take to get my 2nd Ammendment rights back so that I can join the military as soon as possible. I know I will be able to join in two years once I get my misdemeanor charge expunged. I will be 24 then and I really don't want to sit around and wait for that to happen. If I could get my civil rights back I would join tomorrow. Can the army waive such a charge like this? Even though my right to bear arms is affected through the Lautenberg ammendment. Also, what are the chances of getting a charge like this expunged early? I've heard that it's state legislation that i be on probation for a total of 3 years with any combination of formal or informal.
Thanks for your time.
