I have a thread going in General about my denial last week. I wanted to dive into a bit more here, legally speaking. I realize that not everyone here is a legal expert, but I wanted to get an idea what people have been able to successfully do in the past. I have spoken with a few attorneys (including our own Guy Relford). Another attorney I found in AR15.com, who claims to have successfully sued the bureau 5 times on this very issue, says he's planning on starting a class-action for erroneous denials. This whole situation is a giant PITA. I'm just looking for the most pain-free way of getting myself out of it. So far, I've:
- Appeal filed (included supporting legal docs showing I'm a proper person, and fingerprints from IMPD)
- VAF app sent in with above.
Called the bureau and spoke with a live person who claims the appeal can take anywhere from 30-60 days. I've heard from everyone I've talked to that it can take anywhere from 2 weeks all the way up to 3 years. What, if any, steps can I take that will speed this up? Any advice will be appreciated.
