Shameless plug! Hit http://www.hardlyangelschl.com (our ladies only classes taught by my wife) and http://www.doubleactionchl.com, or just give us a call.bubba tex wrote:So my wife (may) want to get her CHL but has some questions. What are these questions you ask? I don't know, she just has questions and wants answers, or at least she wants answers to questions she might have, but hasn't thought of yet. The only one she has actually asked me is: Will her current or any potential future employer be able to find out she has a CHL by doing a background check?
Can anyone point me to a site with info about CHL that might answer some of her unthought of questions?
Thanks in advance.
Regarding your specific question:
GC §411.192. CONFIDENTIALITY OF RECORDS.
The department shall disclose to a criminal justice agency information contained in its files and records regarding whether a named individual or any individual named in a specified list is licensed under this subchapter.
Except as otherwise provided by this section and by Section 411.193, all other records maintained under this subchapter are confidential and are not subject to mandatory disclosure under the open records law, Chapter 552, except that the applicant or license holder may be furnished a copy of disclosable records on request and the payment of a reasonable fee.
The department shall notify a license holder of any request that is made for information relating to the license holder under this section and provide the name of the person or agency making the request.
This section does not prohibit the department from making public and distributing to the public at no cost lists of individuals who are certified as qualified handgun instructors by the department.
The following language was removed in 2007:
The department shall, on written request and payment of a reasonable fee to cover costs of copying, disclose to any other individual whether a named individual or any individual whose full name is listed on a specified written list is licensed under this subchapter. Information on an individual subject to disclosure under this section includes the individual's name, date of birth, gender, race, and zip code.
