2019 Renewal

[MarcWinkman]

I just filed my 2019 renewal while I was at the courthouse for a client's matters.  We'll see if they do better than the four months that the initial application took.

I believe renewals are second to new Applications, because once you've filed for renewal you are covered even if your permit runs out. You should have a copy of the renewal with you just in case you are questioned.

[MarcWinkman]

Well, ain't that grand.

NCC renewal shouldn't take as long as the initial. I think maybe 30 days(?) when I did it last year in 2018.

Sent mine by mail Jan. 2, we will see. I see they cashed my check on Jan. 9th, so I know at least they got it.

 Mine only took 3 weeks last year in Sussex county. My original took 17 weeks.

Mine expires in March. Do I need to wait until March to renew or can I do it any time?

Turned my renewal application in on 01/03/17
Received new permit on 02/02/17

I believe all permits expire on May 31. You can apply for renewal any time after January 1.

[Steveo]

Send it now, do not delay. They have a lot to look at.

If you apply for renewal and you permit runs out at the end of May, you are still covered to carry as long as you renewal is in the works. But you do have to have the renewal application in the system. Best to keep a copy of the renewal application on you, or readily available.

§ 1442 Carrying a concealed deadly weapon; class G felony; class D felony.
...
It shall be a defense that the defendant has been issued an otherwise valid license to carry a concealed deadly weapon pursuant to terms of § 1441 of this title, where:

(1) The license has expired,

(2) The person had applied for renewal of said license within the allotted time frame prior to expiration of the license, and

(3) The offense is alleged to have occurred while the application for renewal of said license was pending before the court.

Yeah, what he said.....

Here's a potential problem:
IANAL, but I'm pretty sure "It shall be a defense..." doesn't mean you won't be arrested and charged with a felony, it means that you can use the fact that your application was filed as a defense in court.

Thats sounds like a proper interpretation to me . But than again IANAL either . It probably has a lot to do with the officer and the situation .
