What happens to a handgun permit if someone is convicted of domestic violence?

A handgun permit is permanently revoked if an individual is convicted of domestic violence due to the legal ramifications surrounding such convictions. This is largely based on federal laws, notably the Lautenberg Amendment, which prevents individuals with misdemeanor domestic violence convictions from possessing firearms. Jurisdictions often align their regulations with this federal mandate, leading to the permanent revocation of handgun permits for those convicted of domestic violence offenses. This measure is in place to enhance public safety and reduce the risk of further violence. Other options suggest temporary measures or conditional validity, which do not align with the established legal standards related to firearms and domestic violence convictions.
