Kelly Restores Gun Rights for Client Convicted of Aiding and Abetting Felony Burglary
When Kelly’s client was 18, he was staying at the Ramada In in St. Paul with a friend and his then girlfriend. His friend went to buy soda but came back instead with a stolen bottle of alcohol from the hotel bar. After further drinking, all three returned to the bar to steal more alcohol. They were caught by hotel security and Kelly’s client was ultimately convicted of Aiding and Abetting Felony Third Degree Burglary, resulting in a lifetime firearms’ ban. Since that time, Kelly’s client rehabilitated, eventually obtaining a degree and a prominent position in Cyber Security for 3M. He is also an involved father to his children and has been in a significant relationship with his girlfriend for many years. The judge agreed with Kelly’s arguments, restoring her client’s firearm rights. Her client now plans to teach his son how to hunt and to inherit a shotgun from his uncle.
