Gun Rights Restored for Client Convicted of Felony Assault

When Kelly’s client was 18, his roommate got into an argument that evolved into a fight. Kelly’s client attempted to defend his roommate and hit the attacker with a tire iron, ultimately resulting in his conviction for Felony Third Degree Assault in Dakota County. In the years following the offense, her client matured and established a successful career in trucking, longing to hunt once again with a firearm. Kelly was able to demonstrate good cause to the judge, convincing him to restore her client’s gun rights and showing her client was not a threat to public safety. Now her client is looking forward to hunting pheasant, which is nearly impossible with a bow.
