It is clear they can.

You can call it whatever you want, but the end result is...you end up on the wrong side of Johnny Law.



USPS does NOT want YOUR gun on THEIR property. They are actively adjusting their regulations to eliminate any perceived loopholes.

It may be clear to you but it is NOT clear to me.

When I was going through training w/IRS, one of the new agents was from FL and he audited a Cuban immigant Dr. Another agent asked if he had checked to see if the Dr had a FL license. I asked why? Our job was to see if he paid his taxes. I pointed out if we audited a mafia hitman, our job would be to see if he reported all of his contract killings.

Our instructor said we'd probably charge the hitman with dealing drugs, then the killings would come out in open court. (I think he was kidding.)

If you know that you will be convicted of a Class A or B misdemeanor, you can surrender your license by mailing it back the to DPS with a letter stating the following: "I surrender my license in leu of revocation".

This will buy you two years according to my last DPS instructor class. You will still loose it for five years, but five is better than seven.

I have always assumed this was so. I am glad that someone asked/or that they clarified it.

PC § 12.22. CLASS B MISDEMEANOR. An individual adjudged guilty of a Class B misdemeanor shall be punished by:
(1) a fine not to exceed $2,000;
(2) confinement in jail for a term not to exceed 180 days; or
(3) both such fine and confinement.

PC § 12.23. CLASS C MISDEMEANOR. An individual adjudged guilty of a Class C misdemeanor shall be punished by a fine not to exceed $500.

A 30-day term would be somewhere in between.

The important thing is that it would not be close to equivalent to a class A.

Not exactly. A Class C does NOT include jail time. I think it is equivalent of a Class B (up to 6 months in jail), a Class A provides for up to a year in jail. It will cost me my CHL for 7 years, if convicted.
