I live in Scranton PA. I pled guilty to theft from a motor vehicle receiving stolen property and conspiracy to do so. I completed ARD and had my record expunged. Now, 5 years later I am trying to purchase a hand gun. My background check went into "research" My question is will I be able to pass the gun permit background check?
Answer
You either plead guilty or had ARD. ARD is not a finding of guilt. So both things you said cannot be true. If you plead guilty you cannot possess a firearm. If it was ARD then you should pass the screening. However, if your record was expunged, there would be nothing to research. So I would guess it is not expunged.
