I'm at my dealer the other day, and he tells me that my concealed carry permit was revoked, which was a shock to me. I called BCI and found out it was revoked because of a class B misdemeanor charge of theft of services, which I pled no contest to and was given a $250 fine and a 12 month plea in abeyance. I would have plead not guilty and went to trial but I just started a new job and did not have time to go to trial plus I thought it was no big deal.
When the plea in abeyance is terminated (in about a month), will I be able to get my concealed weapons permit reinstated? If not, is there any sort of appeal process I can go through or any mitigating circumstances that might help me get it back? Thanks for all your help.
UPDATE: The plea in abeyance terminated and the charges were dismissed. I had my CWP re-instated the day after, simply over the phone with no additional charges or paperwork.
