NYS Supreme Court Renewal Denial Challenges in NYC
We have been watching the NYS Supreme Court in recent renewal denial challenges in NYC and one judge in particular seems to have been getting most of the Article 78 Proceedings. She is a Liberal Democrat and has her own agenda despite what the facts are and the relationship to the law. I am talking about long standing Business Carry licensees and Full Carry licensees. These are businesses that deal in excess of $10,000.00 in cash each week. This judge seems merely to be following a mandated political agenda and not the law!
As is almost always the case, NYPD first denies the renewal for lack of “Proper Cause”. This is the catch all reason for denial since it is loosely defined, if at all. It is also used widely to deny first time applicants, though probably the most widely used denial that I see is that applicants are caught not listing arrests for various reasons that the case was either dismissed, or the record was sealed, or they were a juvenile. But mostly they thought NYPD would not find out. Wrong! They will find out everything especially since the advent of computers. Just because you have some criminal issue does not mean you will automatically be denied. It is something we at Pistol Permit Lawyers are used to dealing with. Yes, people are denied and the cost of applying is prohibitive to many, but with our vast knowledge in this area we can help you to secure your license. If you have issues you are not sure about it is best to contact us for a Consultation before you submit your application. This is true for any County in New York because once you are denied it is much more difficult to convince a judge that they made the wrong decision and they should now reverse themself.
